Hey family,
Yale wins Ivy League title, and the 'other' Bulldogs (aka UGA) keep rolling along with a hard-fought win over the Aggies. Westlake advances into Regional Semi-Finals, and plays in San Antonio Friday night at 7PM vs Westlaco East.
Mom is off to Georgia for few days to be with Beth Castellaw (whose mom passed-away) and Beth's family and friends in Macon. She will visit Ms. Hogan (Cole's mom) while there. Prayers for Beth and for mom's trip. Lucy gets home for Thanksgiving break tonight and can take over Bailey care! (Bailey doing great by the way.) Kyle and Emily in upstate NY with Kyle's family, return to Austin late Friday evening. Sally and T arrive on Wednesday afternoon.
Happy Thanksgiving week and be sure to Make it a Great Monday!
Love,
Dad
P.S. Two truths jumping out at me today from Ryan Holiday's Stillness is the Key:
Don't feed insecurity. Don't feed delusions of grandeur. Both are obstacles to stillness. Be confident.
Confident people are open, reflective, and able to see themselves without blinders. All of this makes room for stillness, by removing unnecessary conflict and uncertainty and resentment!Think about both of those statements and all of the things we tend to get worked up about that just simply do not matter. Those 'things' get in our own way and often cause us not to move towards the good, the easy, the fun, and the light! Easy to say, not easy to do. It takes a lot of self-awareness, but learn to ask yourself, 'does this really matter?' Or, 'why am I so worked up about this or that?'
