Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

was it you that said you were supposed to stop looking at the negatives? I think you are looking for a negative that isn't there @Former-Member I think your boat is in a better place but you just have to recognise it.

what if just over the horizon is a beautiful island? Full of cocnut trees, gentle breezes and lots of fresh fruit and a waterfall that gives clear fresh water? What if because you are thinking it's a bad place you don't find that island because you don't bother to look or let the boat go there? @Former-Member

@Former-Member someone said today that their psychologist had given them an exercise to instead come up with 5 postives instead of negatives or something like that.. it's on the coffee/tea thread.. I'm going to have a look... while you think about your boat and what actually might be going on with it. 😛

nah I can't find it @Former-Member but anyhow.. someone said it.. and it's kind of applicable to you and your boat. Because I honestly think that instead of just waiting... and looking around and appreciating where you are gaining.... or where your boat came from.. you are trying to push it somewhere that right now it doesn't want to go. That you are supposed stop here for a bit... smell the roses.. or the sea breeze as the case may be.. and when it is ready it will find the island or whatever is next on it's journey.

no.. you are not needing a brain transplant thing... lol.. although I am not saying I haven't thought the same from time to time in earlier days @Former-Member you just need some neuroplasticity exercises to change the way your brain is working. That's all! That's not as hard as it sounds.. well it is because it takes practice.. but it sure isn't as difficult as a brain transplant! 😛
