some thoughts on motherhood, marriage, learning to love my own face in the mirror, wondering about the lady in the tangerine coat in the bean aisle at the market, writing - the usual suspects.

The Ability To Worry
Monday morning...
I found an old letter from Dad which he'd written on the back of a xeroxed sheet of paper called ~
Symptoms of Inner Peace.
Here are a few symptoms to be on the look-out for today...
A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experience.
An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment.
Frequent attacks of smiling.
An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.
and my favorite...
A loss of the ability to worry.
(this is a very serious symptom)
