Moment of Pause

[salixbabylon]

Been having a lot of whiny, jealous, "why isn't my life like X's" thoughts lately. This is a good reminder to cultivate my own garden, actively turn it into what I want, rather than passively hope someone will give it to me.

...and the people on the other side have to mow their lawn, too.

So true - takes a lot of work, growing your own lawn... :)

So it's not just me, then. That's a relief -- in a way -- at least I'm in good company. *hug*

Thanks for this, it's worth pondering.

Well, I'm thinking even jealousy/envy counts as step 1 - figure out what you want/don't want. But then it's importact to take action on step 2 - how to get it. ;)

I fall into this trap a lot. I think it's because for so long I want able to change my circumstances that it's become a habit to just wait for things to change.

Good thing to remember :) I always look forward to these from you :)

Habits are difficult to break - but I know you can do it. :)

This is awesome. Don't be surprised if I post it!

(((HUGS))) on what ever is making you whiny.
