I'm 44 and have just finished my first year training as a mental health nurse. I'm the archetypal "quiet" person - I hate "movies", nightclubs, and "fun"; I enjoy peace and quiet, reading and listening to music, leafing through art books, daydreaming, gardening, walking, going to art exhibitions, drinking copiuous amounts of wine and beer, cooking, surfing the net and playing computer games. I can be tempted out to the pub or to hear some live music, and I like the theatre. I have a partner whom I love very much, he is my best friend in the whole world, and a cat who comes a close second. I wouldn't change anything about my life. I'm basically kind
and compassionate and a good listener, though I can make a poor friend as I'm unreliable and can be stingy with my personal time and space.
The Guest HouseThis being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
~ Rumi ~
