1467U WEAK LINK CLEARLY SIGHTED, AT LAST!

Please note that my decision to define serenity as a non-combative attitude is in no way synonymous with my spirit's silent submission when undeserved, disrespectful assumptions slam angrily against my best character traits as tends to happen, from time to time.  Why?  Well, upon reflection, my fact checker has sound reason to hold the green-eyed monster accountable for verbal attacks, which, frankly, make little sense.

Furthermore, my decision to infuse my spirit with straight shots of serenitymost  especially at times when another person's explosive release of limbic tension suddenly runs wild—is not to be confused with meekly turning the other cheek in silent acquiescence each time a volley of mean-spirited verbiage is hurtled pointedly in my direction, as proved true in the past.

Once this change for the better in my attitude serves to secure my conscious connection to serenity, my sense of self-empowerment will ensure that, thanks to reprocessing sessions of EMDR therapy, no portion of my awareness will tap into yesteryear's self depreciating misperceptions, which had undermined my personal strengths by unmercifully needling my self worth.

Hey!  Something tells me that my intuitive decision to embrace serenity as my primary attitude of choice has directed insight's spotlight toward highlighting the weak link in my line of control.  I mean, it's one thing to withhold so much anger as to overwhelm my heart with adrenalin (Hello Takotasubo) and quite another to proactively channel my over-production of energy toward soothing my adversary's limbic reaction.

In short, today's burst of clarity has spotlighted three unresolved fears that have restricted my brain's pleasure center from freely embracing this fourth stage of life, which, for the most part, the aged (who tend to grieve prematurely and overlong in regards to inevitable, irretrievable loss), all too sadly fail to enjoy.

As to naming this trio of fears, well, the fact that today's intuitive train of thought has shone its spotlight upon a string of  insights, concerning my need to fortify the link connecting serenity with emotional objectivity, feels so profound as to alert common sense to suggest that your processor, like mine, has been offered more than enough food for thought upon which to ponder, for now.

So rather than pushing forward, let's offer our think tanks the gift of patience needed to relax and rest easy, overnight, in hopes of awakening to embrace a fully re-energized sense of mental readiness to re-charge our eagerness to mine for additional subconscious treasure, which, though buried deep inside, proves more easily assessable each time you and I choose to meet at the corner of Courage and Humility, where personal growth spurts challenge a person's self assured mental awareness to take intuitive leaps of faith, each of which frees a newly reconstructed sense of self worth to smartly direct every step that we take while continuing to carve out our very own existential paths, where self determination is more than likely to influence our fate, which is not as beyond our control as we might think.

BTW, did I think to mention that today's train of intuitive thought alerted my conscious mind to awaken with need to pen this post at 5AM?  And now that my mindful sense of self direction feels ready to send this intuitive train of thought into cyberspace, my think tank feels so relaxed as to freely choose to snuggle back down under our summer quilt and catch up on more shut eye before my spirit reawakens to greet another hot sunny day with a fully re-energized smile regardless of how high the temperature, outside, may rise as proved true as recently as yesterday when the intensity of the heat topped out at a sweltering, mind boggling 118 degrees Fahrenheit!

Good thing my strength of spirit feels newly inspired to entice my expansive mindset to tolerate all kinds of heat, most especially when my sense of objectivity finds itself sitting undeservedly in the hot seat where my dignity and veracity no longer feel so defensively hot blooded as to burn my connection to logic to a crisp when grilled ... and with that positive change in my attitude clearly stated, let's imagine corny 'old' me feeling cool as a cucumber!

Why cool as a cucumber?
Bloomsbury International defines 'cool as a cucumber as:  Internally calm, relaxed and in control of your emotions. This phrase may have originated from the fact that even in hot weather, the inside of cucumbers are approximately 20 degrees cooler than the outside air.
