WHAT A WEEK!

I noticed fraudulent charges on my Venmo Account.  I was hit in the back by a horse sending me into a blackberry bush on my butt.  A Rider was bucked off landing her in emergency surgery to replace her entire hip.  It is Wednesday.  What a week!

I could over analyze each situation and determine where I was wronged or where I went wrong but I am no longer practicing that method.  I could create stories to each event as though I had the power to prevent or invent each situation but I no longer believe I am so powerful I create good or bad.  I could play the hero.  I could play the victim.  Both roles have been played and experienced and I am no longer auditioning for these roles.  

In fact I simply allowed each event to make me curious.  I was curious about my reactions.  I was curious about what stories I would gravitate toward.  I was curious about my responses both internally and externally.  I am happy to report that I was generally neutral by each event.  Not entirely unfazed but when I started down a familiar path of playing the victim or feeling somehow faulty or guilty I could quickly reroute.  

Ummm.  This is huge.  This is Earth shaking.  This is life changing.  Life is no longer happening to me but instead happening for me!
