Greenbelt today.
Beautiful humans.
Searching the soul.
Yearning.
Dialogue.
Laughter.
Devotion.
Deciding.
Becoming.

Church in the morning.
Coffee with Mr Singh after.
Maybe a curry with Mr Singh in the evening.
It is like sitting at the feet of Wisdom.

Picking up some new spectacles on Monday.
Meeting with Miss Em after.
Love catching up and,
a bit like my inbox,
neglected.

Joan home from 'up North' about 5pm.
She will be as drained as usual but,
we will be able to have a good catch-up.

Two books recommended to me this week
'Crucial Conversations'
'Mountains Beyond Mountains'

Tuesday - more 'going to love'.
Wednesday Joan and me go to France.
Champagne!
hey hey

All facts above - and in L5 terms,
these facts are 'Level Two'.

Level Five me.
===========
I felt some unease at the Greenbelt meeting today - at first.
I have missed the connection which I have had from 25 years of monthly meetings - sometimes more than monthly.
It soon went, disappeared, when in the presence of Angels.
Now my feelings are satisfaction. Relaxed. A wee bit tired but mainly a deep sense of purpose and relaxation.

The principle behind emotional literacy is - we need to be in contact with our feelings in the everyday situation. Not just when feelings explode. Not just when they overwhelm. It seems to me that, if we can't get in touch with our feelings 'on demand' - we will never be able to manage them when the going gets tough. When in tense situations. When there is irritation with the one you love, a child, a work colleague and, in fact, anyone.

I end with considering your beauty.
I think the worst thing about your unbeautifulness is
your imperfection in recognising your beauty.
Loving your beauty.
You are beautiful .............
