I’m in that few days were my steroids keep me awake. We have been tweaking the dosage lately to get the best of all worlds but still have some sleep loss. But actually I get some of my best work done now. I started at 3 something in the morning with my mediation. Out of that came a idea for helping my caregiver’s fatigue that has been plaguing me lately.

To back up a little you know that I have complained about not being able to summon up enough energy in my “work” with cancer patients. People come to me with their own situations or the situations of relatives and neighbors. And I want to listen and maybe try to add something helpful. But I am a beginner and things can overwhelm me, sometimes don’t have enough energy to go around.

But it came to me what I say to my archery students would be applicable to this also. First at every stage of development you are only capable of achieving so much whether it is number of arrows shot or number of people talked to. As time goes on we become stronger and we learn how to be more efficient so that we can handle more. The important part is to be able to see our limitation at an give point so that we know when to back off and renew.

So, I am going to work with that model and see what happens. Hoping that these posts lately don’t scare people away. I am open to them but have to work at my pace is all. That makes sense, right?

Working around the ranch today. Change of season always bring work that is necessary for future conditions. Alperfect, love, Felipe.
