WEEK FOUR
SICK
Contrary to popular belief, I think I was the only Bajan on this island that did not enjoy the almost 7 day vacation that led up to Grand Kadooment. Why? Thank you for asking because I had to fulfill previously made obligations that tired me out. By Friday, I was so stressed I asked for my first two days off from Studio Studio.
Secondly, this gentleman came in on Friday and challenged me. His principle was just radical to me. It was simple, you control you and influence others. No, listen, the hard part was when he said the only thing anyone can damage is your physical being, you decide who hurts or loves your mind, soul and heart.
I know that but when he explained how far it can be applied, I was shocked. He got through a divorce and a funeral with only 11 hours of crying. Why? because he only allowed himself to cry for 11 hours. 11 Hours!
I am trying to adopt his principle but by 12 pm on Friday, I was so tired. Good news is, he inspired me to write a poem, I got a phone call with Bob Wieland and made a decision to deepen my faith in Christ.
I am in control of myself. I am in control of myself. I am in control of myself.
Say it with me.
Once again, shout out to the gentleman for the weekday mornings Silver Sands route!
