Yesterday I put away
and retired a dear old friend. No its not as bad as it sounds what
really happened is my old cell phone has been dying for a while and I
was just recently given a newer phone. My old LG Nexus 5 has been
with me for the past few years and while it may just be a piece of
technology for most for me it was like and extension of me.
I had a lot of good
conversations with that phone and even some not so good ones. However
I cannot blame the phone for the conversations only the people
involved :)
It was a consistent
thing in my life for the time it needed to be and now its time for it
to rest and enjoy retirement ;) The new phone is a Motorola Z Force
Droid. Its a very nice phone and besides a few minor issues I really
like it.
Everything and
everyone we come into contact with has a purpose for being there and
while that purpose may not always be as obvious as a cell phone you
can be assured there is a purpose for it.
I went down to the
camp last Friday with Kelly my roommates oldest. My intent was to get
down there and get the trailer washed on Friday and when the rest
came down Saturday It would be all done. It actually worked out that
way but I had to get up Saturday to do it before they arrived. You
see it poured on us the whole way down there and damn near the entire
night. We got like 2 small breaks where we could unload the truck and
I was able to start on the roof of the trailer.
Even though the rain
foiled my plans for Friday it was still a great day. I just took
advantage of the situation and enjoyed sitting out under the awning
and enjoying the falling rain and a great buzz :D Kelly was in the
trailer watching movies and playing on her phone. She was happy, I
was happy so great day :)
Saturday I did get
the trailer washed and I got it done before everyone arrived so that
was a good bonus. The rest of the weekend was nice and I just enjoyed
the relaxation.
I did have a bad
afternoon Monday. Someone did something that I was just hurt about
and to top it off I had forgot to take my meds that day so I was
already edgy. At the time I couldn’t figure out why it was later I
realized I didn’t take my meds.
Even though I felt a
bit pissy the rest of the evening it only lasted the rest of the
evening and didn’t fall into the next day. Yeah I was and am still
a bit upset about it but I let it go. I had to realign my focus and I
did. I am proud of me for that. I didn’t let something fester for
days and days like I had so many times before.
It was a moment I
held in gratitude of my highers who have helped me see the better
side of things and to understand things will happen and its only up
to me how I receive it and act.
I have built faith
from nothing into the gratitude I live today. And while not every
circumstance will be received with love and understanding I do have a
conscience about it and have been striving towards being at peace
with not the circumstance’s but myself. The highers again helped me
make another leap forward towards my higher self. Careful Melissa I
know what your thinking here :D
Speaking of that
higher self lol Time to smoke a bowl or three :D
Live in Love and
Light be at peace with you and relax your only changing the world one
person at a time ;)
