Sometimes I have really good days, other days I feel like I havent got much done! Today was one of those days ~ I did wash the car and clean it out but yet I still felt like I could have done more.
Mirror Images Happening
This afternoon I could feel the feelings of disappointment welling up within, and trying to squash those thoughts down. Replacing them with other thoughts that are more counter productive.
Yet it was like a raging twisting hurricane within…..one minute I was saying “thankyou” for all that we have, while the next minute I was questioning why we didn’t have all that I dream of!
David could see my mixed emotions. And helped out the best way possible ~ he made a very yummy dinner before he left for work…he put it together in less than 10 minutes as he was running late!
I continued on scraping the paint from the outside of our Motorhome. The thoughts kept continuing on inside and was letting me know they were going to keep the dancing game up!
I am needing this ~
the sun setting while driving!
It must have been obvious to my boys. Because when ever I feel like I am the edge of a cliff, they soon start to muck up more than they do normally. Which usually ends in Tears, or fights.
So I tried harder to keep my thoughts under wraps. I tried hard to take deep breaths. And it almost worked out well.
Until one of our Sons got a phone call. His school work was falling behind and he had deadlines to meet. With a few extensions added so that he can get his work sent in.
At first he sat down to complete his work, but then it become all too much! You see he has been helping me with whatever I am doing, whenever he can. And it caught up with him ~ as well as the late nights (busy reading, having fun!) ~ so off to bed I sent him.
My thoughts become my reality ~ and he mirrored the same behaviour of what I was feeling! Over tired, too much to do, not enough time. He was a reflection of me. Or was I the reflection of him?
Hoping tomorrow that I am more settled so that my boys are more settled.
I once saw a sticker on a car (wished I knew where the sticker came from so that I could put one on our Motorhome!)……
“Happy Calm Mother, Happy Calm Kids“
So tomorrow I will be more calmer. Help him with school work, get it posted off in time, and be in the moment of enjoyment. Be there for my boys in a nicer way.
Do you have Mirror Images Happening in your Family?

You say you don’t have all that you dream of – why not enjoy thinking about all that you dream of 🙂 That focus has a way of working it’s magic into our lives. The more we try to push feelings away the more we are focusing on them and they will persist (what we resist persists).
I can relate to your son with the schoolwork. Our teen dort is studying by distance, certificate 2 in animal studies (part of vet nursing) and also working 20 – 25 hours per week. I have learnt that I need to let her monitor herself and manage her time the best way she sees fit – she has been doing an amazing job now that she knows that she is the master of her ship :). I am there to offer help if needed but only if asked. Her last exam she scored 96% so she is obviosuly doing enough study even if I sometimes worry she isn’t LOL
Gorgeous photo by the way! 🙂

I believe this happens to everyone. Feel lucky that you have all boys, because when there is more than one female around there are two ups and downs happening. It took me a long time (how could I be so slow) to realize that my daughter and I lost the plot, when it was her time of the month. Duh!

Hope you have better days ahead. Keep smiling!
I agree with Jan. This do happen to everyone. I hope you feel more settled. 🙂
I enjoyed reading your post. Yes, thoughts become our reality and the reality we manifest is a reflection of our vibrations (thoughts-emotions). You have great awareness to notice how your mood or vibrations affect your family. Yes, we are reflections or mirrors of each other. I have also noticed sometimes how my mood affect my family. Thank you for describing the reflection of each other effect so beautifully.
