The Funk

I’m on the run this morning, but truly grateful that it is Thursday. I’m in one of those places where a little black cloud has gathered over my head. I do know the reasons for it (stress is such a wonderful thing) and have my opportunity of the week to deal with it in a real healthy manner!

There are things in life that happen that are just part of life, no matter what journey you’re on. sh*t happens, and it can become very real when you really understand that you can’t control the actions of others. I have gone through a real betrayal of trust by a close family member, something that has had a major financial impact. I still love this person, but her actions have caused a real situation and the situation will impact us going forward. Love is not in question, my love is unconditional, and trust is an issue as it relates to this person. It is gone, and I’m feeling in a bit of a funk!

Thank god its Thursday-my mental health day. And even better, the plan had some extra benefits in for the day, plans made well ahead of knowing I would feel the black cloud today!

I’ve got my favorite little coaching friend this morning. We do have a bond that allows us to push each other to get better, and we are developing a healthy transparency in our relationship. From there, a quick stop to visit my mother, then over to see a health professional and one of my associates in my Life Coaching business. I enjoy this hour of sharing and having truths shown to me! Good positive stuff.

Then off to a 12 step meeting then on to the golf course where I’ll have the privilege of playing with my “sponsor”. For various reasons, including his wintering in Florida, we have not had a lot of time together in a while!

I have some client work to do early this evening, and some web site work to knock of. I am hoping to get some feedback on the Hope & Serenity.ca site that will allow us to make improvements over the weekend.

Like life, its work in progress.

Funny how things work, just getting this stuff out of me in journal form has the little clouds dissipating already. It is a day in transformation, a day with purpose, and in externalizing and sharing with others; it will be a great day!
