An oddly nice day

I was so weary at the start of the day, from all of the hassles of the week, and the successful completion of my daughter's car search yesterday didn't diminish the dread I had for how today was likely to go. I felt out of control of things, like I wasn't going to be able to make the choices I wanted to in order to spend the day as I preferred.

As it turns out, I wasn't, and that was okay.

Sometimes we just need to let the things we're dreadfully anticipating be - or not be - and just go with the results. The decisions we make in that emotional dynamic, and our resulting experiences, are very different from what we receive - what we're open to - when we wrap ourselves tightly around our inability to make things as we desire them to be.
