Seeing red


Makes me smile.

The only thing keeping me from buying four more red storage cubes from Ikea was time.  It was never the right time to go get 'em.  Then, the other day, somehow it came up in conversation with Tiina.  And we discovered that they were looking to unload just what I was looking for.

Makes me sad.

A situation with friends that keeps repeating itself.  It's something that triggers a primal response...that is negative...protective.  Despite the bigness of the emotions that rear up, it's not a huge thing.  Nothing worth discussing, no less making a shift in the relationship.  I heard myself saying out loud, to myself, something I said to Cap recently.  "You don't have to understand it.  It's okay not to."  That helped me let it go.
