Meditation: Day 19

I've spent the last few hours lesson planning for a kindergarten demo lesson I have to do tomorrow. The plan is to read Dragons Love Tacos and then make our own story tacos - but instead of filling out tacos with lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese, we are filling our tacos with the beginning, middle, and end of the story. I hope it goes well.

I realized today that good feelings and complements can often be just as hard or harder to accept than negative feelings. It's almost as if we are conditioned to believe the negative. To berate ourselves. To judge ourselves. And we can't fathom that maybe we have redeemable qualities . . .assets even. So my meditation practice today is all about breathing in the good and breathing out the bad.

This is the first time I've written before meditating. It's a late night. I'm going to go do my meditation in the shower. It might be one of my favorite places to meditate.
