I hope all of you can find those coping things that you can do to remove any negative thoughts. Be at peace and I wish all of you a good and healthy season. ginnie   |
Nice thoughts, Ginnie, Pcslife, everyone. I think I am finally starting to get a grip on the whole negative thinking thing, especially the anger. I've also used meditation a lot. I also use some of the mental techniques used by the Samurai.
Roger on the pain thing, too. That sounds so right on, how pain pushes you past the coping thresshold, and the negativity ensues. I understand that equation better than I care to. I just wish a certain Superior Court of California could see it, too (don't worry, nobody physically hurt).
