My brother sends me provocative pictures of his first baking attempt –
tangerine cake; I confess it looks yummy but thankfully it is miles away.
The winter is definitely not the best time to give up on sugar as the
cold and darkness call for warm comforting foods but I won’t let it beat me now
with only 7 days to go. I must say that this challenge has given me the
reassurance that I can control my mind to obey me. Being quite a rule breaker
and a ‘do as I please’ sort of person I can never diet (not that I want to) or
stick to a specific plan (the tide is unpredictable and so is life), as I tend
to live in the moment so things can change according to mine or life’s moods or
needs.
‘Your problem’...some people say is ‘You like too many things and just
can’t focus on one’. Sure I like many things;
I like to experience and explore things, not being told about them.
I need to try it for myself, whether it is a new therapy, new technique, new
science, and new place to go or a new natural shampoo, cream, restaurant. Life
is about enjoying, experiencing and then choosing what works for you, but where
does the balance lies? Being a Libra the search for balance and harmony is a
constant need that applies to every area of life, personally and professionally.
Psychotherapy not only makes you analyse what’s going on around you but
also what’s happening inside yourself, for better or for worse until death do
us part, it is like a marriage that can’t be dissolved. I’ve figure out that I am a bit like a kid who
likes to experiment and goes from interest to interest in cycles. There aren’t
enough hours in the day for everything I want to do as obviously I have to work
(which I like), but would appreciate more time to ‘play’ on a daily basis.
I reject authority without fundament which makes it really difficult to
be my boss, unless you are a really good one and I rarely see those. I get
annoyed with politicians, selfish pricks, pretenders and liars. I don’t settle
for second best when I know that more can be achieved and I started valuing
communication as the key factor in every relationship the moment I figured out
that people aren’t psychics (well some are,but must find really hard when people
don’t get them), and can’t guess people's intentions. So speak up!
As tomorrow is Monday and you are only going to be half productive (ah come
on, confess),think about what defines you, not in a silly away like when you go
to an interview, the real you?
‘Neo: I know you're out there. I can feel you now.(..)You're afraid of change. I don't know the
future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to
tell you how it's going to begin. I'm going to hang up this phone, and then I'm
going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show
them a world without you. A world without rules and controls, without borders
or boundaries. A world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a
choice I leave to you.’ The Matrix
