Hey great chip Chaotic/Serenity
I allowed things to get a little chaotic today and this
was done by procrastinating yesterday. I have finished
everything on my list so I can kick back and enjoy the
rest of the day. It's almost like a sense of peace comes
over me...... All my Ducks are in a row and I can relax ;D
Have a good one.... ~SunnyGirl~

The nice thing in today is that I don't TRY to make chaotic happen. I no longer have to live on the edge and I can go with the flow and deal with chaotic when it gets here.
I sure identify with procrastination. Unfortunately, it isn't always postponed until tomorrow, lately it has been nex week. I try to except what is in the moment and if it doesn't happen, so be it. A friend told me once not to beat myself up for not doing what I think I should do. She said, "If it is meant to be, it will get done. You need to align yourself with the Universe and if you don't know or don't have the energy, it isn't time." Sure saved a lot of chaos in my life.

Serenity is a much better way to feel than chaotic. I did that for 35 years. Chaotic is not pleasant.
There is a small Alanon book called The Forum JOurnal. One of my favorite quotes in it:
Serenity is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it.
WOW! Love ti!

I am going to copy that and put it on my fridge!! I so like that too Lin.
Thanks for making my day on that.
I like it when I have serenity in my ballcourt, it is just so much easier on me (doesn't everyone think that) to be able to cope with the craziness that comes my way, my health is my craziness. LOL.
Take deep breath and just know that you are in control.
