Friend: i am really NOT one of those women who is in a constant state of zen although i really would like to be
Lynz3131: I'm SO not, either. I don't know how people do it!
Friend: my theory is that they must actually be rather dull ;) i mean, how could somebody who is perceptive and intelligent and has the ability to think critically NOT get angry from time to time? Wouldn't you just have to be simpleminded to be that placid? Alas, I think there are probably some really smart people who are also very peaceful inside. sigh. Where's the path to enlightenment?
***********************************
So, I'm looking for DU'ers thoughts to this... are there some people who are just naturally very calm and peaceful? Can you maintain this peace, this zen, while parenting? I strive for it, but I lose my cool not infrequently, much as I try.
