I had to stop on some errands after working 12 hours. It's not normal for me to work 12 hours in a row, so I was tired and forcing myself to stop at the grocery store and Wal-Mart. I could feel myself while driving to these places that I was already making it a terribly unpleasant thing for me to do. I was grumbling to myself and darkening my mood, when I realized that it was my choice to go to these places and my choice how I approached them. I then brought love into what I was doing. I wasn't happy bouncy because I honored my tiredness and knew I had to struggle to stay focused. I accepted my choice to do errands with love. So, as I walked into these places, I saw other people with their tired faces set in grim determination and annoyance. Almost all of them avoiding looking in the eyes of anybody else. I looked at everybody with love and searched out their eyes and when I did see into the eyes of those people, I saw their light within and I was blessed with seeing them brighten with that light and smile. It was amazing.
Love and Light.
