Insights: what woke me was likely the dream. I remember very little beyond someone attempting to woo Jennifer away with wealth and her scoffing and waving it off as absurd. Ok, maybe there was a momentary hesitation, but my ego will attribute it to shock and not consideration. I also found myself, once awake, reflecting once more on the nature of chaos surrounding Lauren's accident. It was a minor incident that caused inconvenience and expense, but it could have been much worse. It gave me pause to reflect on Tommy's ski accident and all that went into that for weeks to follow. These things feel disruptive as they occur, as deviations from the norm, yet they really are the measure and substance of our life experiences. It could well have been that she might have totalled the cars, caused injury to herself and others, or worse. It takes a lot of effort to maintain a broad perspective when your brain is screaming "oh shit" over and over. Thus, the ongoing thread of my journal being about reinforcing perspective. "It's hard to see the picture from inside the frame".
