Thanks, I guess I needed that. Reminds me of what I thought was a strange interaction years ago: my sister told my 5 year old nephew to relax and I visibly saw him relax. I said to her: "He's five. You need to tell him to relax?" And she said "Yes." And that was that.<BR/><BR/>I guess we all need to be reminded how tightly we're strung from time to time. :)lacochran's evil twinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00830374402474261699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-31498591824063690882008-04-10T08:05:00.000-04:002008-04-10T08:05:00.000-04:00I love the colors and the whole "feel" of that pho...I love the colors and the whole "feel" of that photo, Reya! The warmth of the colors combined with the slightly tilted word make me feel relaxed just by looking at it. Very visually pleasing.<BR/><BR/>Gary made me laugh!<BR/><BR/>This is very interesting ... I never thought about problems in this way before.

But they are there. i believe it.<BR/><BR/>Another way to look at it: I'd rather read James Hillman than about Paris Hilton any day.

You want a blissful life? She has a blissful life. <BR/><BR/><BR/>In Africa, Paris is quoted this week as saying, "Every time Paris saw something she liked, like a woman's dress, she would ask how much it was. That included a cheetah she saw at an animal park. She asked how much it was and said, 'If I bought a cheetah, would it run away from me or could I keep it?"<BR/><BR/>When you are that stupid? You don't have problems. You are too stupid to have problems. Your problems are "Why are these Manolo's pinching my feet? Why can't I have seventeen dogs? Why do you want my head up and facing that picture on the wall?"<BR/><BR/>I wish I could believe that the cheetah wouldn't run away, wouldn't eat my dogs, wouldn't eat my shoes, and wouldn't wind up featured in a sex tape with me in about six months time.<BR/><BR/>Call me someone wishing for a pink, sparkly moment in life.Washington Cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892459114050731786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-70108913349988436492008-04-09T14:09:00.000-04:002008-04-09T14:09:00.000-04:00"A secret love hiding in each problem."
