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!
