Day 35

Day 35: Real Time
Day Four: 21 Day Complaint Free Journey


My cousin from St. Augustine and I drove back down to south Florida to pick up my mom yesterday. She was visiting with her sister, who is my cousin’s mother.

My family hasn’t been very close over the years, for many reasons that aren’t important as I practice becoming a more conscious human being. All I know is that my dad’s recent death has brought many of these folks back into my life.

We had a great trip down, talking again about our individual journeys with relationships and life in general. It’s been a long time, decades actually, since we’ve had that opportunity.

And although we drove a total of almost 8 hours with hundreds of other travelers along I-95 in Florida in June, we managed to do it without complaint. We shared, we commiserated, we explained, we wondered. But we didn’t feel the need to complain.

On to Day Four!
