Character Defect of the Day

Thank you Flo, this was on spot for me today :folded_hands:

My character defects of the day are resentment and control. I’m pissed at my dog for again trying to chase a car. That’s dangerous for me, he is 55 kg and an idiot. Let go and let God :see_no_evil_monkey:

My character defect of today is that I’ve been leaning into and wallowing in my insecurities, which makes both my personal and professional lives more difficult and uncomfortable and doesnt lend itself to finding solutions

My purchase at Cumbies was $4.62. I gave the young man with the nose ring $10.12

That put the fear of God into the poor boy. :tada::tada::winking_face_with_tongue::joy:

My character defects of the day are again resentment and today overwhelm. I’ve been back to basics one task at a time, breaking up tasks in smaller tasks for quite a while. Today I’m tired from yesterday and see the piles of work instead focussing what I can do now. And I get really frustrated. So more smaller tasks it is, apprechiating what I have and what I can do. Have rest planned in the afternoon, that helps my mood. ODAAT

I’m in the same boat as this right now.
I’m exhausted from a lack of recharge time the last few weeks.
I’m looking for an escape today that isn’t coming.
Just finishing up work in the next 10 mins, then off to pick up my daughter at daycare for swim lesson, then home to make dinner.
Glad I’m not looking for an artificial escape.
It will be worth staying strong on the other side.

my friend… I do not see a defect in you… resentment is a tough one. Dog chasing cars is disturbing. Yunna met up with a skunk last week. Second time and think she would learn. Sending love, peace and harmony.

Glad you are here.. Exhaustion and not getting the time to reenergize I am sure is rough on you. I myself am spending time here to avoid a project requested that I hate to do. Sending energy and compassion your way. Laziness, procrastination and just don’t wanna I guess is my Defect today.

My character defects of the day are resentments, anger and grumpy. I still chew on some avoidable bullshittery from yesterday.
Worry is no character defect, but I want to put it here as it weighs heavy. I’m worried about my old boy, he has been puking during the night. Have to change the bedding again. Being overly worried and alert is not good.

A suggestion of dishonesty (there are no degrees of dishonesty).

I have always tried to practice to treat others as I wish to be treated. But I have a tough time with one individual. When something awful is said to me I snap back and just can’t react with loving kindness. I am vowing to stay mindful this week and not react to bad behavior.

My character defect of the day is wantig too much. I have limits, there’s no sense in overdoing. Today I’m struggling with wanting to accomplish more than my energy level allows. Patience and kindness for myself :folded_hands:

Thank you :people_hugging:
I managed to NOT overdo it and got a lot done. My veins are hurting due to the heat and driving but all errands done. I guess tomorrow I will be tired and take a rest day. I’m glad I used this energy to tick off due and important things from the to do list.
Being in slow motion now helps to settle for bedtime in 2 hours. I’m grateful for the saying: Tomorrow is another day :folded_hands:
