Today is about what you can do for yourself. It’s not about the clan or family, regardless of how you love them.

Do it for yourself.

Does make me wonder who I think will "interfere" today.

Hello!  And welcome back.  This rune, for me, spanned the whole of the week I have been otherwise occupied.  So let's talk about "family time".

First, examine the perception of family time.  I see a group of people gathered around the table, eating, laughing, talking...  or drinking, talking, crying, laughing.  I see the group expanding and contracting, breaking into little groups and coming back together again.  I see events, and plans, and people doing things together.

I had a family event - kind of a family vacation - this last week.  It adapted and grew in the planning to become a working vacation, retreat, family event.  

In the retreat/ working vacation, I did some stuff for me, and some stuff because I thought it could be for me, and some stuff for my clan.  Sometimes the question was not "Do I want to?", it was, "do I really not want to?"  Compromise.  I think it went well, for that part finished with the feeling of accomplishment and purpose.  There are places where, looking back, I can see that exerting myself could have been helpful for the clan as a whole.  I hope to remember this next time.

The family event also finished with purpose, though the original feeling of accomplishment was missing.   There was gathering and eating.  There was some expanding and contracting.  There was even some doing things together.  Yes for the laughter and yes for a few tears.  But the  purpose, the connecting of family in depth does feel lacking.

I realize, as I write this, I have a lot more practice flowing in my truth with my clan than with my family. 

There is a feeling of accomplishment now, however, a few days later.  Because I did practice some.  And I recognize some of the places I could improve, be firm but fair so I can receive what I need and allow others to be themselves also.
