Coming of Age in the Aquarian

moose on a wire

Journal Entry Date: 14 Oct 2004

Thought for the Day:
Everything in life has its price, whether in time, energy, money, or emotional toll. Be clear, choose wisely.

Brought to eye/mind today:
Received via email a picture of a moose hanging by its front legs on a high wire. Apparently workmen were laying wire and when they raised it, the moose was snagged.

Thank you, Doreen, for thoughtful care at the dentist's office.

Journal:

• Had lunch with my department head at work. It was my official opportunity to have my say; didn't have much to air. We managed to carry on a conversation the whole while.


• Then on to a dental appointment. Doreen, the dentist's assistant, made sure that I was comfortable. My job was to hold the low-volume suction tube in place. I think I did well.


• Ursula, the administrative assistant, bought me a gel pad to ease the wrist.


• While exercising at Curves on a machine that drives up the heart rate, just stopped--couldn't move. Realized I had been going too fast; heart was pumping away. The body has its own wisdom.
