Lovers and Fighters
Today was a big day for me because I had a mediation conference to settle financial assets with my ex-wife. It was a very interesting experience because it gave me such an insight into human characters. My ex-wife is a fighter and I am a lover. The fighter must feel they win the battle, in this case financial settlement. The lover acts from love and does not see a battle. The lover did not feel bad about getting less financially, the lover feels good that he knows he needs nothing. The lover feels lucky that he will always be surrounded by love and a little sad that the fighter will always be surrounded by fighting.

been there done that. used a go-between. i benefited less but I was okay to "compensate" in ways that were easier than staying.
ReplyDeleteFighting and Loving. Can't relate to either right now. What do you prefer...highs and lows and rollercoasters or flatline peace? lately i'm craving the latter- boring, some people say.
hope your kids are doing ok. have a good weekend!
You've gone through a similar experience already?!
ReplyDeleteWhen you say you can not relate to loving right now I assume you only refer to romantic love? Love is always surrounding us.
Peace is not boring! Peace is the high!
My kids are fantastic. We had a great weekend of surfing and ten pin bowling :)
ALREADY??! whar;s that supposed to mean...didn't you think I call myself "grandma" for a reason? LOL
ReplyDeletewhy do people assume i am exaggerating-latest instance i debunked was when my dad dropped in unannounced and objectively saw the state of affairs in my house re: "sh*t busy no time for sh*t"
no, just any love i think...i think if i consciously think tho: i feel love for nature and animals. everybody else well they're either just cool or okay :) maybe i expect too much, lol
actually i can relate a bit to fighting- caught betwen two parties inadvertently...and I still feel stressed out from the bad vibes! life is too short to fight...i don't get why people don't why people are so freaking dumb- actually i was in the sauna at the gym just now (cos it was a day that required serious unwinding)- some dumb chick was asking what does the heat do- some old guy gave her a really ditzy made up reply which she took seriously and the conversation kept going on and on playing with the poor dumb girl...I walked out before i could feel any more demoralised by the fact that there are way too many seriously bimbo ignorant people in this hemisphere! that's what happens when you grow up spoilt in a sheltered exclusive brainy bubble i guess.
ps that sounds like a great weekend...for some reason i know a lot of surfers- nothing i can think of that is more scary and unappealing...ten pin bowling, yeah okay....LAWN BOWLING..now there's some fun! I'm down for a rematch in LBs and chess with one of the surfers cos the last scoreline completely hammered his ego-so he took initiative to start practising-haha!actually he's 40 too...i swear my natural cohort of mates is a bunch of 40 year old men cos i must be one inside!
