3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Son's laptop seems to have survived its' encounter with a glass of water on Tuesday, so hopefully Son has learned a cheap rather than expensive lesson.

I always get a little nervous when Family Accounts day (tomorrow) approaches, but that's also a good test of my spirituality and anxiety management skills. The disciplines of Submission and Grounding are required!

I find a chant I learned from the Hatsurei Ho meditation from Reiki is helpful in this regard:
You are always connected to the Universal Source
You cannot be disconnected from the Universal Source of all life

The intention to be continually aware of this connection and to let my Higher Self/Intuition/Subconscious direct me is my prime objective at the moment.

4. TODAY'S QUESTION FOR YOU
Does your life have purpose and direction?
