Contemplative Reflection
Virgo Daily Horoscope

A reflective state of mind could find you lost in your private world of thoughts
today. Those who know you may accept your contemplative mood, giving you the
space you desire. We experience the world through our inner thoughts and choices
of how to intepret what our senses tell our bodies. Most of our outer world was
first conceived within, and we have done our part in its creation and
manifestation. We may not even realize how much power we have to create our
lives, but if we look at our lives, we can probably trace each major thing back
to an idea we once held or a choice we made. Today give yourself permission to
linger in the world of your thoughts because this is the birthplace of your
future.
Contemplative moods are part of our natural energy cycle and are important to
our growth. In order to build upon what we've experienced, we need to take the
time to reflect upon what we've learned. Only then can we choose what we'd like
to take with us into the future and what we'd rather leave behind. We also need
this state of mind to let ideas germinate. Some will take root and become
manifest in our outer lives. And each begins with the energy dedicated to
generate the thought, nurture it with attention, and make choices that bring it
into reality. By making your world of thought a creative place, you allow the
universe to speak and be made manifest through you.

Poly, Kinky Child

OK...

So my daughter is talking in the car this morning about sending cards and letters to the people she misses. On that list is a little boy (P) from her old daycare that started big kid school in Sept 06 so she hasn't SEEN him since before that. He did come to her bday party last april.

She says to me that she told her daycare provider, Rachel about him as her boyfriend. Then she proudly announces that she has 2 boyfriends. HIM and trinshadow's weeboy.
I asked her which one is the better boyfriend. She tells me, BOTH...then says, well I"m weeboy's GIRLFRIEND but P is her boyfriend. I ask her what makes him her boyfriend.....

she says cause he's mean to me and he pushed me off the firetruck!!!!!


*here's me, LAUGHING MY ASS OFF behind the car so she doesn't see me*

OK UNIVERSE... I AM LISTENING

Essential Authenticity
Revealing Your True Self

Identity is an elusive concept. We feel we must define ourselves using a relatively small selection of roles and conscious character traits, even if none accurately represents our notion of "self." The confusion surrounding our true natures is further compounded by the fact that society regularly asks us to suppress so much of our emotional, intellectual, and spiritual vibrancy. Yet we are, in truth, beings of light-pure energy inhabiting physical bodies, striving for enlightenment while living earthly lives. Our true selves exist whether we acknowledge them or not, often buried under fears and learned behavior. When we recognize our power, our luminosity, and our divinity, we cannot help but live authentic lives of appreciation, potential, fulfillment, and grace.

At birth and throughout your childhood, your thoughts and feelings were more than likely expressions of your true self. Though you may have learned quickly that to speak and act in a certain fashion would win others' approval, you understood innately that you were no ordinary being. There are many ways you can recapture the authenticity you once articulated so freely. Meditation can liberate you from the bonds of those earthly customs that compel you to downplay your uniqueness. Also, communing with nature can remind you of the special role you were meant to play in this lifetime. In order to realize your purpose, you must embrace your true self by letting your light shine forth, no matter the consequences.

Rediscovering who you are apart from your roles and traits takes time and also courage. If, like many, you have denied your authenticity for a long while, you may find it difficult to separate your true identity from the identity you have created to cope with the world around you. Once you do find this authentic self, however, you will be overcome by a wonderful sense of wholeness as you reconcile your spiritual aspect and your physical aspect, as well as your inner- and outer-world personas. As you gradually adjust to this developing unity, your role as a being of light will reveal itself to you, and you will discover that you have a marvelous destiny to fulfill.

She can come home and watch movies while I get the rest of the day's work done.

Update regarding DRIVING conditions

They suck people.

I generally LIKE driving in this...not so much today.

It's coming down so fast, the plows can't keep up. If you are not home, GET THERE safely...

If you are...STAY PUT.

I've shovelled at least 1 foot out of my driveway already and it's still piling up. whew....
