December 2015 - summary

It's the end of 2015. 31st December.

My understanding of my anger has increased. So has my intolerance of discontent and malfunction in my relationship with Kevin.

I am very aware of how much more in control and mindful I am able to be in daily life if I take the time to meditate.

I'm also aware that Pema's admonition to exercise patience is not on the forefront of my mind at times when I need to use it.

I am getting better at speaking well at times when I need to or waiting until I am less emotionally volatile.

The new challenges are all around patience and speaking with a kind heart, and not with defensiveness or bitterness.

January: patience and NOT speaking

February: speaking with clear and kind motives and will take things forward, not send them backward
