90 days. Played football with my friends, meditated and had a relaxing day yesterday until I got an email in the evening that got me very stressed and confused about some things related to work. Stress is a trigger but didn't give in so all is good so far. Oh, and it seems as if I just evolved into a grey wizard. The Balrog of PMO shall not pass
Day 38. I need to go to bed, but I didn't want to miss a check in as I've made all of them since starting this challenge. Canada is in bad shape. I'm scared of what could happen here. I've been more stressed than I've been in a long time this last while and it's made it hard not to relapse, but I'm prioritizing the reboot.
Day 26, Frodo just passed the Ford of Bruinen. I love reading the book during the challenge, it gives me so much focus and strength. The urges are slowly building up, but I need to remain on the path.
Day 189 no PMO. Got back home yesterday and my wife let me know that she had been stressed out having to deal with everything on her own. She asked me to step up yesterday and do some of the prep work that she would normally do to get ready for the week. I appreciated her honesty and communication. Good day.
Day 30! Reached Rivendell! “The board is set, the pieces are moving. We come to it at last, the great battle of our time.”
I just read the passage where Gimli, the Dwarf lord, was asked by Galadriel what gift he desired from her. Gimli, who first answered "none", then admitted that what he desired was just one of her (Galadriel's) hair. Because she knows that Gimlis heart is pure and he's very galant and humble the beautiful Elf gives him three of her hair. Very poetic and romantic! Do you remember it?
