My Zen balance has been upset.
A couple of friends are going through rough patches of their lives- 2 married couples are going through the motions of dealing with infidelity, another couple has broken up for no strong, apparent reason. I have had to deal with long phonecalls from the 'victims' of infidelity as they flit from 1 emotion to the next- one husband is blaming himself for his wife's infidelity; another wife is pissing mad at her husband and not able to cope with his disloyalty. I've had to make myself available for another friend who is on a verge of depression to help keep her spirits up.
Need a break from all this bad zen to get my balance back. A long overdue holiday is most welcome at this point.
