Mind Over Matter

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” – Dr. Seuss
Oh, Dr. Seuss. You are so so so smart. Just for the record, I’m posting this post…post-company Christmas party. So if I end up rambling, I apologize…..it was the cran-tini’s fault. Damn those cran-tini’s.
With the holidays approaching and the fact that I’m not going home to visit my family, due to the over-priced plane ticket prices, for the third year in a row…I’m feeling extremely guilty. I should have planned this earlier but alas, I did not. Maybe someone will take pity on me and offer me some turkey dinner?
Or this could also be taken as an opportunity for myself to focus on me. Maybe I should be a lone ranger this Christmas? I feel like I’ve been walking through a House of Mirrors at the carnival. Tall, short, fat, big-headed, wobbly, one-eyed. Somewhere there, those mirrors twisted my mind in all sorts of direction and I forgot to remind myself that those distorted perceptions of me…are not me. Finally I’m out of that house and back to reality. No more beating around the bush, no more time-wasting…let’s get this show on the road…so-to-speak.
