"OCD"
With just little over a month to go before this year, 2013 ends, I start to look back at it and how far I have come in such a short space of time, compared to the 48 years I have been around - it is quite remarkable.
Every day is a challenge, but it is a challenge that always comes with a lesson. Just waking up and deciding that today is the day to just let go and let God, the universe, or whoever we decide determines our life to take control can be a very hard one.
Far too often we find ourselves wanting to control every situation, every minute of every day. Sometimes we just need to let go and let it be.
In the words of my daughter "you have OCD". Of course when one has this you don't know it. So I had to look it up. Yes I guess that is one I did not know. "Obsessive Compulsive Disorder". Bloody nerve to come and tell me I have OCD just because, the mat is slightly skew, or there is speck of dirt on the tiles, or the coffee table is too far from the couch, or the plates are not stacked in the order I put them.
So why can't I have order in my life, after all almost everything else around me is in disarray.
Good grief! I have turned into my mother.
