mixed feelings

saro is back but not yet fully
I don't know what to feel
am I supposed to be super grateful he turned up yesterday 
guess I could be
he had other things that he must have cancelled
wish he could have been more attentive to her party and been more willing earlier though
but I'm being unfair 
After all I've always known his true priorities regardless of what he pays lip service to. 
I'm sounding bitter
I don't want to
I want to be grateful and happy and bounce on present joys without regret or resentment for past or future 
and I can 

I just saw grass on a roof of a bus
surely that can only make me smile! 

and earlier flowers so shockingly pink on a green tree 

again I can only marvel at such beauty
and thank god for a lovely party 

he and I hugged on valentines day . that was last Monday. 

since then nothing. 

oh well. 
.and I've been making plans. planning dates for his birthday 

and suggested we meet for coffee on Thursday after my yoga

let's see 
I'll make some effort. but not have any hope or expectations.

hardest deal ever
but I'll try and keep trying and I will be happy

After all I can't quite forget or forgive unfortunately the slight he gave me last anniversary and soon after at the walk a jog

I am always low on his priorities. 

but it's ok..he shall be low on mine too. 

I will not speak about this
he will feel helpless

he can't change the way he feels

I have to do the dignified thing 

and find joy everywhere I can

in nature
in writing 
in my parents 
in my kids 
in my friends 
in books
in music 
in movies 
in God


I am sooooo blessed to have so many things to give me joy

cheers 


grr. I hate him in the temple. always so torn. says he will pick up aishu then asks hopefully if he can be excused 
how am I supposed to trust him
he doesn't understand the effect his qn have on my already tender line of trust I have with him
he is the most reliable man in the temples.
but at home? need reminder after reminder for things . 
sigh. 
can't say anything 
just accept
accept accept 
zen
ohm 
shantih shantih shantih he

After note 
1. Good I didn't say anything. he showed me the book he had overseen publication of for temple. Shakthi. beautiful! and sooo much effort from him. quiet. silent. I was very humbled. it would have been awful if I had whined . 

2. he did ask me out on a Thursday! but i had already made plans. Still... there is hope!
