Positive energy...am so exhausted and tired and am trying to stay positive but  I am not always successful doing that. I am in the process of writing my diss, i'd like to move an dcchange my current situation and also my love life is a total mess... so I just need a hug:) Thank you!

A Big Grandpa hug to you.....yea many of us know your feeling....but the only thing that help in the long run is to catch the little positive straw you can find.

Anything else will only wear you faster down....and the "funny" thing is that positivity attract positive impulses....negativity just consume your energies.

Another big hug...  Take a Tarzan Cry or two....then you will smile...and some of the tension will go away

thank you very very much. feel better already...

Hi flif,

::big hugs:: You know.. a little angel reminded me the other day when something negative pops into my head or there are negative influences around me to take a breather and just think of one thing that is positive that makes me happy. I usually do this, but lately I've been forgetful.... I was glad for the reminder.

When you start feeling this way, just take a short breather to regenerate and think of something you know makes you happy. As for me, sometimes I think of my nieces and nephews because I absolutely adore them and the fun things we've done together and the laughs we've had. Let that feeling and the emotions attached to it flow through you until you feel good. And then go back to what it was that you were doing. Just by the change of your mood will make getting through your diss easier and other things you may be dwelling on. Try not to dwell too much, and remember all storms pass and the sun always shines

Well Angelique, that is such a beautiful note! Thank you. I do know exactly what you mean...because I have been using the same tactics. Thinking of things that make you happy...they do indeed make your body (mind) react in a positive way. Thanks for all the encouragement and I am glad my note reminded you of how to get closer too feelings of happiness and satisfaction. I do, however, have somewhat of  a problem related with these positive thoughts...See, the thing that really brings the glow on the face , a feeling of happiness that in fact can be a bit lasting is a town and my life in that specific town....I am not in right now and the chances of me ever living there again are rather slight, I think. The realization that I am not (never have been) happy with where I live has been in my life for a very long time. the thing is that there are no options in my country (i already live in the capital) to move to another fairly large place or more diverse, lively etc....a move overseas would be the only option... for me...and I was so close once...lived in NYC for a while..Of course, there are other things that push me down in my life right now not just this one thing. .Anyway, am rambling, sorry:) Thank you very much again. Positive thinking, yes!
