I am happy with myself in that although my laptop battery didnt last me long enough I am writing this entry by hand to then type it in.
Today I saw my friend the therapist. I am happy with my progress. I have seen how I have let go of guilt in some of my situations. I was able to see how I have not felt guilty about certain frustrations and that is good because I am allowing myself the "shadow" emotions. Although i do not want to be stuck within the shadow emotions - I feel I need to really experience them.
Although I went into work late, I felt very productive. I am noticing that I am less hard on myself and allow myself to fell that I am as good at my job as others tell me I am. It is inspiring to see how my self esteem has been lifted.
Mary gave me some pages from a Kabbalah book. It talks about the duality as it pertains to God's perfection and perfect imperfection (on its way to being perfect). Interesting because it deals with man's birth on eart...no fall of man at all - just creation.

I can just feel the joy in this post!! What a wonderful thing to experience - yes, experiencing the shadows is a good thing… like you said, though, not being stuck in them… sometimes we work so hard to avoid the shadow, when walking through it (experiencing it) would have made the challenges pass more quickly. There is much to be said about learning from our shadow qualities.
