“NEVER GIVE UP
No matter what is going on
Never give up
Develop the heart
Too much energy in your country
Is spent developing the mind
Instead of the heart
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends
But to everyone
Be compassionate
Work for peace
In your heart and in the world
Work for peace
And I say again
Never give up
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up”

His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama

show up basics, plan

"We do not always require hard energy, or
stress, to motivate us to grow and change. We do not have to create
stress, seek it, or attract it. But if it's there, we can learn to
channel it into growth and use it for achieving what's good in life.

The choice is ours. Will we let
ourselves feel? Will we take a spiritual approach, including gratitude,
toward the event? Will we question life and our Higher Power by asking
what we're supposed to be learning and doing? Or will we use the
incident to prove old, negative beliefs? Will we say, "Nothing good ever
happens to me... I'm just a victim... People can't be trusted... Life
isn't worth living"?

God, let my hard times be healing times."
From The Language of Letting Go by Melody Beattie 

Mole's check in

Trying to open my rusty old heart 

the morning was fine - busy, predictable, friendly. In charge so no room for procrastination.

i have eaten a healthy lunch and am about to have an unhealthy coffee.

while I am having me coffee I will read a book in the sun in the garden.

at four I shall go for a walk with B

so 3-4 plan week and slot unalterable times in for CV WIL

today is Z's birthday - haven't sent her a card or letter- do one of those and ring after 6. Next week is J and S s birthday, should have sent something today, but have not even got presents. SEND CARDS today and then follow with presents. Procrastinating doubles the amount of time I need to spend on things.

tidy

declutter

contact R and M, Y and H

think about dinner for B and S. 

but most importantly work out a writing sstrategy

This all sounds like head to me!
