This morning I woke up from a dream that I was visiting my Grandmother (My Dad's Mother; My Abuela). She and I were talking about things in here house and in her garden. The house was a surreal, dream version of their home. We were taking up a conversation from a previous visit, I remember her welcoming me back and we were very happy to see each other again and we were getting to know each other.
Things like the dirt in the garden were dream like and strange, the dirt was like beads. I felt like the dream had been long and extended but I don't remember any details. I also remembered that this was the second night in a row that I dreamed about her. The only thing I remembered about last night's dream was that she was kissing me goodnight like you would kiss a baby.
Tonight I again became very resentful with Christie. We were having a discussion and it began to escalate into an argument. I was resentful of the way she communicates. I think I might be the one with the communication. It doesn't matter though, all that is important is that I was angry, judgemental and unforgiving.
Right after our disagreement a guy came to the door selling newspaper subscriptions. I was rude and sorry to him. I didn't treat him with the dignity a human being deserves. I know he would have taken advantage of my kindness if I would have spoken nicely to him. But I must persevere to be kind anyway. I know it is possible to do so and still let him know I don't take solicitations at the door. God, please forgive me. Thy will be done.
Today I had to take calls all day with Evan out on vacation. God blessed me with resourceful thinking and conversational ability. Things went better than expected.
Tonight I went to the store to cash in some coins. As I was doing that I got a tap on the back, it was Cassandra my ex-coworker. I was soo embarrased. But I sucked it up and humbly talked to her about how things are going. It was good to see she is doing well.
I was happy to be able to speak to her with a light spirit and know that I have been blessed with a great family and a wonderful wife. Even though I was embarrased to be broke monetarily I know that God has blessed me with a life that you can't buy.
