I think patience is one of the hardest parts of this process for me (probably for most people.) The way emotions and moods cycle is disconcerting because what felt like progress two weeks ago now feels like slippage. Continued introspection and steadfastness in my practices is what I need, but it is hard when you are feeling beat down.
I took my dog out on a road trip yesterday, 2.5 hours in the car out of the city to the mountains and a national forest to visit a great little swimming hole. She was so happy to be out in the woods walking and soaking herself in the water. It was a good break from the routine here in the city.
Happy Labor Day to all the people on this side of the pond!
