So much has happened among my family over the last several months and normally I would find myself in the center of the swirling vortex. I am happy to report that deep within my soul I am a pillar of peace! While I have my opinions about other people's choices and actions, I am determined to keep them to myself and maintain the little island of happiness that I have created.
Part of this new state includes admitting my own shortcomings. I am jealous of what some have been able to attain, I am upset that it seems others have very little confidence in me, I feel ashamed that I sometimes feel burdened by loved ones and I do honestly wish some people ill because they have crossed lines that I feel are very important.
All in all, while it may not sound very healthy, this newly found emotional state of being is serving me quite well. I take full responsibility for my flaws and feel comfortable admitting to myself that while others may have flaws, their problems are not mine. My only hope is that my inner state of peace continues to spread throughout the rest of my life and I soon find peace amid my daily stresses as well.
