Available

 When I am cooking or baking, things don't always go as planned.  Even hopes get dashed.  So I take solace in at least being the one who is doing the cooking or baking.  When life does not go my way, I have to accept life on life's terms, but be available for others, to be of service, to fill a void and might be a way of being helpful.  It takes the sting out of things not going my way.  Why should my way be the way at all?  Stuff happens.   Service in Action negates resentment, self-pity or ego deflation.  I would rather have life on life's terms when I am trying to be available, helpful, rather than when I am being all about me.
