Highlights: an enlightening jikoji visit with trying by Michael and a synchronicity moment dharma talk by Ben Connelly about "The Three Natures". Wow. I spoke briefly during the QA session and really felt more confident in the act of engaging. That was as validating as the talk was. Tommy sent me a photo of the flowers he left for his mom, unprompted, without even a reminder comment from me. It was a sweet gesture on his part. Jen and I went to my moms and hung out for a while and talked. Jen really opened up to me about the work around the Byron Katie workbook and we discussed it tonight in more depth. She's so close to a positive insight and acceptance of bring blameless in her relationship with her mom. It's hard work.
Accomplishments: came up with a handful of action items around Jikoji. Made more progress on the Boulder post but also stated expanding some things while reducing others. Sooooo close.
Gratitudes: Being able to gain confidence at 61. The joy of driving a mini convertible through the woods while being present to the gift being able to do so is. How Jen looks at me. That Scottie still likes to play.
