The Road Less Traveleved

Hey all,

My patience has really been tested lately. Trying to walk an enlightened path can be very difficult when there are so many things thrown at you at once. I am trying to see the lesson involved with the things that I am going through but I cannot. It is hard not to judge people when they can be mean and manipulative. I mean, I know that I should not view others this way but I am a realist. I am not at the point yet where I can just shut things off. Every day presents a different challenge as if I have done something wrong and honestly I can't figure out what that might be.

Well, we are going on vacation soon. I am hoping to gain a moment of clarity so that I can focus on what I need to do. I tried to meditate tonight and all I could think about were the current problems in my life. This stuff is hard. I am trying to keep my energy positive. However, when there is so much negativity around you, there isn't much that can be done. Does anyone have any words of advice? Well, I hope your days are going much better that mine have been.
