okay so I think it's a Friday Friday the 22nd is it a 22nd the 22nd of November 2024 and the title of today's reflection is gonna be the defroning if that's even a word like right now it's coming up to like 11 p.m. in the freaking evening like as far as I'm aware like I've been a dad
for years, but I've been a dad of this newborn for the past two days. And again, I'm having to learn, I'm having to adjust my attitude a little bit.
Often at times, reality presents us really and truthfully with things that we are not particularly happy with, if that makes sense. This happens on a frequent basis I guess. Like if we were to write down you know the number of things that would effectively kind of like make us happy like things that just basically happen during the day, like we will find that there will be a bunch of things that wouldn't be ticked off from that list.
You know how much that gets ticked off from that list varies from person to person because some people are very clever. Some people say like you know what in order for me to be happy the Sun needs to come up it then needs to go down and then like there just needs to be oxygen in the earth and then all of their boxes are ticked. Whereas other people some people's lists are a little bit more complex which is why you get people that find it really difficult to be happy and people that find it
really easy to be happy. This is where the key word and almost like the magic word the buzzword expectations comes into place. But when it comes to my own personal expectations, it's almost like I expected to move heaven and earth, even though I effectively have my responsibilities, I wouldn't say have doubled, but they've definitely increased with the addition of this new pickle in our family, this new noggin, so to speak. It's been a hard day. It's been a hard day for me emotionally
because it's like there was so many things I wanted to do that I couldn't do because there was so much else that I had to do, which has got nothing to do with me. But I guess I'm just basically kind of like, you know, learning how to effectively kind of like embrace life for what it really and truthfully is.
