The Side Effects of Endorphins

I never thought to have a strategy for negative feelings.

I see them as a bigger part of life. I have become better at talking about them rather than bottling them up. But I can’t say I have a strategy..

For example

It’s official, we are moving to Seattle, in the next few months. This became final this weekend.

To downplay all the negatives would be irresponsible and one must live with them. We have a good life here, lots of friends and moving is a pain in the ass.

Writing

Writing means lots of rejections. And I must admit a rejection feels feels like I punch in the gut. I feel down after a rejection and have no real strategy other than living with it. I know there are publications coming. In fact, one of my stories hits the newsstands tomorrow morning.

The Current Regime

There’s a low level gloom connected to what’s having in the United States

I can’t say I ignore it, but I try to turn around and be as kind as possible to those around me. Letting bad news affect you too much is like multiplying by negative one. I don’t feel myself as a negative person. So they do not negate.

A bowl of hot soup helps. we read to see who we are and we write to see where we are going. Life is a long journey and it pays dividends to be patient.
