Wel;l, I set myself the challenge to write something on this page every day for a year to be a change in attitude towards the parts of the world I don't currently like.
Even as I write that, two things strike me:
1. that it is very hard to stick at something, doing it every day. Over the days since I started, I've missed more than I've entered.
Well, 'endorse myself for effort, not for success' is one of the principles of Recovery, a self help group that promotes mental health.
2. The second thing that comes to mind is that maybe the world is OK the way it is, and maybe I need to change myself to fit into it. Surely that can't be the case ... surely we are expected to leave the world a little better than we found it.....
Whatever, it is to LOVE I must turn for the answer, and loving the world the way it is (unconditional love) is not such a bad idea.
