Good morning. Today so far is turning into a fairly decent day. I finally got my royalty check from my publisher for the quarter and book sales were better than predicted. Which in turn means a few bill collectors will be happy for about a month. Other than that it's cloudy, humid, and hot, a typical late July in Southern Georgia.
A friend mentioned that my work recently was reflecting a certain degree of introspection and I suppose that's true. But it's the best source material I have, reflecting on my own successes and failures to plot new directions. The key is to look at your own actions carefully and compassionately. Often times we look at ourselves with a much more critical eye than we should.
By looking at your actions with more compassion, you are showing yourself the same degree of love and compassion you'd give a loved one or even a stranger. If your willing to forgive a loved one of a wrong to keep the relationship growing. How about the same for yourself? Life's too short to be screwing around with your head the same as the haters in your life. Try a little compassion then see what happens. You might be surprised things you thought you'd never overcome might start dropping by the wayside.
