I remembered. something today - one of those. memories that seemingly comes with no prompting, no. stimulus.

I was in second grade. There was this kid, Stu - I can't remember his last name. He was, like me, an attention-seeking class clown. He used to try and get me in trouble.

Every time I tried to thwart him, he would go to the teacher and accuse me of doing what he did. If I tried to defend myself, he would talk over me.

What a dick. 

I got very frustrated. I wasn't a fighter, really, but if I'd thought I could beat him up, I would have. He didn't think I could either, or he wouldn't have done it in the. first place.

Luckily, it didn't last long - I stopped engaging, stopped talking with him. After first trying to provoke me, he got bored, I guess, and it stopped.

The memory came complete with emotional recall, and I had to do my 'letting go' exercise, because those emotions didn't serve me then, and certainly don't serve me now, sixty years later.

I'm grateful for all my past, which has delivered me to my 'Now'
.
