***The smell of horses and the feel of their soft noses.

I had what I think is a breakthrough with journaling on Sunday. I had a conversation with a friend that really upset me Sunday evening. Plus it was the day before my cycle started so that did not help in the least. Well the conversation left me very upset and it had been ages since I felt that upset. I still had to update Sunday in my journal and do my weekly review, which I do on Sunday evenings. I was so upset I was like ‘screw everything. I am done with this program. I have had enough. And no I am not journaling. I felt like a little child arms crossed, lip stuck out. You can’t make me I am not going to do it. Well I got ready for bed and as I crawled into bed there was my journal. With out a second thought I grabbed my journal finished up Sunday, did my daily review and then my weekly review. I could tell I was not 100% present while I was doing the review. I could still sense that little part of me off in the corner arms crossed, lip out, glaring at the world. But the cool thing is this part of me did not win this time.
