Sometimes gratitude does not come easily. There's a lot to be grateful for and yet sometimes the complaints come way more readliy.
Sometimes it's an effort to shake off the negative perspective and seek out the positive.
And sometimes that effort seems mammoth.
So reincarnation has always been a bit of a sticking point between me and Buddhism.
Not that I know that much about it, but whenever it comes up I've always felt a bit...skeptical?
So mostly I've just kind of ignored it.
I have two kids. Two incredible, bright, funny, healthy, gorgeous kids.
And I love being their Mum. Being their Mum is the most rewarding and challenging thing I have ever done. And sometimes I think I'm doing a pretty good job. Then there are other days when I think I'm doing a totally crap job and I'm raising two little brats.
So by now we have a newly elected Government. Is it Rudd or Abbott? I am happy to say that I am disconnected from the internet and deliberately disinterested in the telly.
Happy Father's Day Gen X Dad's!
I hope you are all being told today what an amazing job you are doing by your grateful and devoted partners and children.
Because seriously? Do we all know how lucky we are to have these partners? To be parenting in these times?
