This week has been a tough one in many ways, I have worked too much this year and I need a holiday or at least 2 days off in a row...my inside voice is very stressed...when I get tired I go crazy (inside), I woke up Tuesday morning and was serenely drinking coffee, or so I thought... when my husband walked by (my inside voice thought...why can't he pick up his feet ?) I knew right then, in that moment, that if I was criticizing the way Frank walked I was in a bad way...so I took off to see some female friends and get a little boost of their positive energy....it worked for awhile...but my inside voice continued all week, I took naps, time for myself and still it wouldn't quiet....my outside voice managed to behave, not a negative word or criticism was uttered in my husbands direction.
I shared this with some students and we all discussed the fact that female hormones play havoc with our minds and that thank God that as we have gotten, older, wiser and of course better, we have learned to not listen to the inside voice when it is negative.
We agreed that learning to keep our mouths shut and going out , was the best way to handle these times.
Today my inside voice calmed down, I packed all day, my loving daughter came home for the afternoon and I was able to give her some kitchen stuff, we had dinner as a family, and later I went out to meet long time friends who are very very positive.
I think my inside voice is either gone or sleeping I came home relaxed and happy.
