oh i know...

.

art work by Colin McCahon

.. that it's not very good to be grumpy

and i know that is not the right thought patten to be making

and i know it means that i am attracting negative energy

and i know that there are starving children dying as i write this

and i know i am incredibly self indulgent

and i know i am lucky to live in such abundance

and i know that my life is very easy

and i know that i could change my attitude

and i know that i should

but right now

i am grumpy and i just need to be it instead of shoulding and badgering and being all tut-tutty with myself

i will just be grumpy and let that be enough

and then move on

  2. I was feeling like this a couple of days ago.
    I acknowledged that "grumpy" is merely an emotion, I felt it, I knew it would pass and it did <3

    One of the greatest things about being a queen in her 50's is being able to openly say life isn't always sunshine and rainbows (except when it is) and accept a well timed and necessary grump every now and then!
