1278 COCK-EYED OPTIMIST OR REALISTIC PLAN MAKER?

2015
As the problem, which arose this week from out of the blue, remains unsolved
Our family, reacting as a team, came together—in fact
David flew in—and as is common when any of us is faced
With solution seeking of a serious nature, we'll continue to brainstorm until
Team work and creative thinking come up with a proactive plan of action—

Bottom line, no one's in denial, meaning that
No one is wasting time or energy by pointing fingers of blame, in fact
Reflection suggests that the person, who is most in need of clarity
Is shouldering the heavy weight of undeserved guilt, which is why
An integral portion of our brainstorming, problem-solving routine
Concentrates on heightening objectivity, all around

I am beginning to see where today's train of thought is going:
Today's stream of consciousness is focused upon the fact that
My power of intuition is in the process of tapping into
My subconscious storehouse of factual memory, and thus does
Intuitive thought serve as my brain's conveyance when
My conscious awareness is in need of insight into deeper truth, and
Having clarified that, let's see where today's insight is going:
Insightful thought is working to release an answer to
A question that I'd asked of myself several posts back:
If denial is defined as a mental block against 'knowing' oneself then
Clarity directs each mind to focus less on
Imaginative hocus-pocus and more upon
Implementing simple plans of action, which
Actually work their magic by
Tuning into the positively focused side of our minds rather than
Concentrating mental energy on sending anyone on a guilt trip, which
Upon reflection, may prove undeserved—in short
Our family's well practiced brainstorming technique ensures that
We don't put anyone down—and anyone includes oneself ...

In short, the nature of this unexpected setback shows our family
Practicing teamwork in that each player is encouraged to make good use of
His or her gray matter by focusing less on black and white and more on
Brainstorming through a kaleidoscope of possible solutions until
Clarity taps into the positive side of imagination whereby
Creative thinking combined with critical thinking spotlights
The solution that clearly connects
Heartfelt need with logical trains of thought ... and
With a growing sense of insight into the fact that
Setbacks are integral to every endeavor that ultimately
Meets with success throughout each stage of life
Our family supports each other's long-range goals, much more often than not—
And now, after reflecting over today's train of thought, I have to chuckle at
Will's outdated view of The Cock-eyed Optimist, whom
He swept up into his arms and
Carried over the threshold as his bride, 49 years ago, today ...

PS
It looks like Intuitive thought has just answered
The question I posed a couple of posts back:
Does my connection to positive focus fall into Denial Land, more often than I know?
Apparently, that has not been true in recent years for this reason:
My focus has been consciously directed at opening my eyes to
Clarity rather than allowing pretense to blind me to myself ...
And the proof in the pudding points to this last insight for today:
The Realistic Plan-making Woman I've grown to be is not
Nearly as naive as the frightened young girl in my dreamscape, whom, upon
Approaching young adulthood, freely consented to be Will's blushing bride ...
