Patterns, Day 70

I am always amazed when I look at the image from the day and wonder if the image dictates my life or my life dictates the image. The pattern over the last few days has been the same, and some patterns (habits) seem to be difficult to break. Spending a week at the beach with my family always sounds like a wonderful idea at the time, but last night old family dynamics were dredged up from the deep reestablishing themselves loud and clear. I didn't allow myself to get caught up in it but it still had an affect on me. It's time to reestablish a new pattern, which I think I was able to do in the way that I handled the situation, but it wasn't easy.
