Four Points of Reflection

Time spent in idle chit chat

Today was a quiet day.

Particular resistance(s) to my practice

I'm not really stuck in resistance right now. I'm just noticing how my approach to practice shifts... Sometimes I'm hot... ready to do it all. Sometimes I'm lukewarm... indifferent. Sometimes I'm cold... just don't feel like it. Right now, I'm motivated.

What troubled me most today

Today, just general nervousness about this industry I serve. The news from GM is just bleak, and so many of us who work for automotive companies are bracing for the impact. We're all wondering (even if we work for relatively stable companies) if our jobs are secure.

What made me happy today

Is it a bad sign when I pause after reading this prompt? There are plenty of things to be happy about... the rent is paid, I can pull air into my lungs, I don't have a cold, the flu, or any other sickness to contend with. My family is safe and well.
