This morning I was up before 5. I heard a distinctive grumbling from the other side of the room.
Normally, I would have shouted back some language I am working hard on not using. Normally, I would have been hurt and angry.
Not today.
Why not?
In a meeting I realized that my reactions are not cool. I realized that I can not continue to punish him or myself for every mistake we have ever made.
I can not keep a list of every little time someone hurts me and hold it over them like a bloody axe. What I can do is gather more information.
So I did.
I handled it. Quietly.
I want this to be my new normal.
Thanks for reading my blog.
