Lynn Toler Instagram – This is how I usually mess up. I concentrate on what I believe my problem is so hard I never really step back to look at the whole picture. Sometimes the problem is way across the street and I’m still on the other side beefing with a curb about some imagined difficulty it didn’t even cause. Of course dude here had a whole other issue. Ego. Ego is #emotion on steroids. It’s how you FEEL about how others FEEL about you. If you don’t call it what it is you can’t adjust for what it does. Happy #Wednesday I am in a whole new phase of #widowhood I did not know existed. My sister in law and I were joking about him the other day. We fell out laughing then we both got quiet. Then we quickly changed the subject. The joy of Having Had is trying to overtake the horror of Having Lost and I can’t figure out if I’m simply not there yet or I feel guilty about being close to it. My money is on a little bit of both with side of some other #emotion I’m feeling but not, yet aware of mixed in. Not for nothing I feel the need to say that in order to drop bars and get views people make definitive overarching conclusive statements that make them sound sharp but really, at the end of the day, they’ve just cut out the nuance and the context, inappropriately categorized the people or things about which they speak and then they’re selling it to you wrapped up in rhyme. It sounds good. It might even feed a feeling you have but don’t let that confuse you into believing it. Just because fact A feels right doesn’t mean it is. People often look for information that supports their opinion. I try to prove all the stuff I think wrong before I adopt it as a belief or support therefore. That allows you out of the echo chambers of beliefs algorithms create for you. Just saying. Ohhhhh … somebody’s cranky. 😯 Love y’all. Shoutout @sharkwerks
