Dear Lovely Lady, I saw you and your little boys when you first came into the restroom as I sat with our son laid out on the little sofa of the nursing room. I saw you glance our way several times as you helped your little ones wash their hands.
I have nothing but respect for Will Wheaton for sharing his personal experience of depression and anxiety with the world.
He threw the book and stomped off to his room. "Don't you understand?" he yelled, clearly frustrated. "I have dys-A-lexia!"
When things are going badly, whether in love or in work, most of us strive mightily to improve our situations. But what if the way to overcome a series of losses and failures is just to sink into them?
We are all faced with challenges constantly in every area of our lives. Most people have a hard time accepting and dealing with these challenges that arise.
Life never comes as a bed of roses. Everyone has problems in their life and to deal with them at a time seems like most difficult and impossible task. To deal with different problems in life, you have to be strong and face the problems....
How often have you been living life, happy and content, and then suddenly life slaps you in the face with something unexpected? We all have problems, and the truth of the matter is that problems will never go away. They will just change form.
Feelings of stress are caused by the body's instinct to defend itself. This instinct is good in emergencies, such as getting out of the way of a speeding car. But stress can cause unhealthy physical symptoms if it goes on for too long, such as in response to life's daily challenges and changes.
Sometimes life throws us a curve ball. For some, one curve ball after another seems to come their direction. That's me. Maybe it was my happy childhood that led me to believe that life was going to be easy. Maybe it was that I'd never really known pain up close and personal.
