More free association.  Ready GO!

At the moment I sense a bit of anxiousness.  I think it's carry-over from work earlier today.  I'm not hugely worried about it.  I'm actually rather pleased with how non-affected I was when I got picked up from work and the kids were wailing in the car.  I felt surprisingly fine.

I'm a bit flustered about my work-out schedule right now though.  If I had my way I'd exercise every weekday but it seems hard to pull off especially with a newborn.

I think I'm gradually coming to terms with some excellent insights I heard from Ceci yesterday about finances.  If we were rolling in dough financially, we wouldn't be learning financial responsibility the way we are now.  I get the sense that I've spent years fantasizing about having plenty of money for a number of reasons.  I really do hope that we'll be in a financially well-off enough place some day to do some good in the world.  I truly do hope this.  I cannot help but wonder though if I've used this as a cover-up for some underlying issues.

I'm slowly unearthing some feelings in recent days/ weeks.  It seems to me now that I've equated financial independence and abundance with having worth as a person.  I sense that I've deluded myself into thinking that if I don't have a secure financial standing then that means I have failed as a person therefore I am not "good enough."

Anyway, that's my contribution for today.  Until tomorrow!
