Feeling frustrated as a Choice Point
Frazzled and frustrated, my stress level was escalating. A Choice Point. Keep going with escalating emotions or pause to take time to de-stress? I paused and congratulated myself for this choice. I decided to listen to a favorite meditation CD. I put the ear plugs in, put in the CD and pushed play – nothing! The batteries were dead. My stress level ratcheted up a notch. A Choice Point. I searched for replacement batteries, but there were no AAA’s in the cupboard. Up went my stress level. Another Choice Point. Acknowledge the frustration or deny it? Feel the frustration and let it go or stuff it in some way (overeating?). It’s always a choice, isn’t it?
