From Brahmakumaris Online Learning
Sometimes, the emotional landscape within me is hard and rocky. Every footstep of my thoughts lands on hard ground, unforgiving terrain or prickly pathways. My heart and mind are beset by an intensity of emotional experience that makes my daily journey difficult. One of the most reliable tools I have in moments like these is the tool of observation. I acknowledge the difficult emotions. I detach slightly from their effect on me and just observe them. I notice how they shift and change. I notice what thoughts are associated and I tolerate the turmoil, knowing it will pass. I focus on what I have to do, I carry on with living and I walk gently through my day. Slowly the energy shifts and I am once again on gentle ground. Today let me observe, not absorb any difficult emotion.

Today was a stay in bed, rest, relax, rejuvenate and regenerate kind of day.
I got up to play with Harley and then made my breakfast to bring back to bed.
I watched YouTube videos on water colour painting, I coloured in on my Zen app, I journaled, I dozed, I did a late Friday falafel and I watched some of the women’s NRL semi final between Broncos and Cronulla. Cronulla won.
I got out of bed to play with Harley and make chicken and vegetable pies for dinner. I put spinach, bok Choy, fresh peas, fresh beans, capsicum, leek, carrot, zucchini, sweet potato, mushroom and garlic with the chicken. I mixed up a white cheesy sauce and encased it all in puff pastry.
Delicious!
Adoring Husband went back for seconds.
Now I’m ready for sleep.
Nite all.
