Week Three

So this is the start of week three of "treatment". Guess this is officially the halfway point ... Having mixed feelings. Think I'm making good progress but still slightly worried / anxious about the next steps. I recognize that as ego / negative thinking.
Spent the weekend in DC with college friends celebrating a friend's sister's 40th birthday. There is nothing quite like  nostalgia...helps to put things back into perspective after some reflection.
The road has been long, but in the grand scheme of things o have much to be thankful for. These past few years of adversity don't feel so large when I look back at some of my struggles in the past. Simultaneously some of my struggles I could have NEVER prepared for them.
Just a few weeks before another trip and time to reframe / refocus and get back on track. As I inch closer to my "deadline" my focus moves towards being, living and acknowledging the NOW in every element of my life. I am close to a place of peace NOW. I have work to do NOW. I love who Summa is becoming NOW. I appreciate my blessings NOW! I am grateful for the life , friends and experiences I am having NOW!
I will deal with tomorrow when it comes. For NOW this is my space and my focus.
I have begun keeping a gratitude journal and it has been helpful to log happiness vs chronicling sadness. When I look back at my life I don't want to focus on disappointment and sad moments. I want to reflect on the happiness, the gladness and recreate THAT!
