The dryer won’t start. \u00a0Drat. I did laundry this morning and now the dryer won’t start. I checked all the connections. \u00a0I checked the fuse box. My thoughts ran to “I just had to replace the washer at my rental. ” I knew that didn’t have to be my experience. As Yinnie my Mini Cow rubbed my left leg, \u00a0I glanced down. I noticed the dryer door was not completely shut. \u00a0I shut it and the dryer started. What was my lesson here?<\/strong>\u00a0That I can be completely connected, all systems go but unless I “close the door,” I can’t move forward.<\/em> \u00a0My experience is if\u00a0the past is not resolved, then I can expect that when things are going very well, it can all be yanked out from under me. \u00a0<\/span>That\u2019s why I get it all resolved when I\u2019m down in the muck of it and have far less to lose.\u00a0\u00a0That way I don\u2019t spend my life looking over my shoulder and waiting for the axe to fall when things are going well. \u00a0That way the only momentum I have to be concerned with is\u00a0<\/span>forward<\/em>\u00a0momentum. \u00a0I contemplated the “close the door” metaphor and realized there are a few things I could close the door on, so I spent this early morning considering just how I might do that.
