I ate a lot of cake today. In fact, it was all my fault because I wanted to bake a cake at home after months. My excuse was that I had to see how cakes turn out in the new convection oven. So I made a chocolate cake - with no icing. I shared a bit with my parents, but ate up most of it. I was happy while I ate the cake but then I was very unhappy. I felt like a failure because I have been working out regularly and should be more cautious about my diet. So I sat there hating myself and my stomach, hips and behind. Suddenly, it hit me. It wasnt over. I could make up for my mistake. I could work out extra the next few days or eat only steamed vegetables for a while. In other words, I shouldnt hate myself for one bad day. I thought about this and realised that the same applies to everything in life. We could all be mean to somebody but then make up for it by being nice after that. We could all slack off at work for two days but then make up for it too. I think two things have helped me think this way and kept me calm lately: good friends and a book of Buddhist readings that I recently started reading. We all need good people and good thoughts in our lives. I am taking this moment to appreciate the positive things and people in my life, including MM. Have a great weekend everybody! - Admin MM
