Confrontation

Us humans make mountains out of molehills, we have an uncanny ability to make life far more complex than it inherently is. My goal is to search out simplicity, a less convoluted approach to my life and my reactions to what is happening around me. I might be overly idealistic but deep down I’m a great fan of harmony. The past few days have really made an indelible impression on me. I’m not very good at confrontation and even worse when it does happen because I spend the next 24 hours consumed with trying to work out a strategy to undo the mess that I have created so I can return to a well balanced state with the world and the individuals in it. So the lesson is not to create conflict in the first place.

The trick is going to be a well considered application of what I cal my 2 rules for happy living.

  1. Be able to experience anything &
  2. Cause only those things that others can experience easily.

At the same time I cannot allow my own integrity to be alloyed so I have to be arduously conscious of my reactions, my motives and my intentions at all times.

Oh well, there’s a new challenge and a new project in my life to negotiate and to master.

Possibly what has happened over the past week or so is the universe throwing a test my way. I’m doing better than I have in the past at handling it although it has involved a lot of thought, strategising, ruminating plus a bit of self doubt thrown in.
