Why Am I Not Happy?
We all want things in life. Desire is built into our genetic code. But even in this age when we have achieved more physical comfort and more mechanization resulting in ease of work than at any other time in history, we are still not happy. This seems odd, doesn’t it? After all, we are all told from a young age that once we get the right mate, the right house filled with the right stuff, drive the right car and have the right job, then we will be HAPPY. So what happened? We did all the work, got the stuff, but still no joy. I want to offer that perhaps we have been sold a bill of goods and led down the primrose path. You see, when we do all the “right” things, we may not be happy, but all the people selling us crap and getting us to behave/vote a certain way certainly are, or at least think they are. The missing ingredient here is so simple yet often so very difficult to achieve. True happiness requires us to think in a different way.

Life Lately
HELLO. Yes I know, it's been a hot minute. I've been distracted by so many things lately. Mainly by Grey's, though. I'm totally hooked (and also just a ball of emotions!). I've never cried so much in my entire life. And I'm not a crier, if that makes any sense. Anyone else?

Embrace Change
Sometimes the pain we feel inside is like a little bitty caterpillar's metamorphosis yanking at the center of your stomach fighting for a sense of direction trying to guide you where it's hard to see where you are going; because going up the stairs, you haven't yet made it to the top to see what's there. Haven't yet reached its destination. We hurt because we don't understand the proper purpose of change. Stress is strain, mental or emotion tension which causes anxiety and depression in the body. Stress—as I call it—is just the UN-understood feeling of the process of change that is required for the next level in one's life that is NOT necessarily unwanted, but is misunderstood.

8 Tools to Break the Negativity Cycle
The more I experience and learn of PMDD, the more I think its treatment may actually be in the mind, not by altering it with prescription drugs like anti-depressants or even, necessarily, traditional “talk” therapies, but through retraining it to think different thoughts and take on new habits, to the extent we can, at any rate.
