ways to cool down the panick
long story short, I experienced some relationship issues today...
I became heated with panick and a sense of the unjust inside me...
I was about to call my therapist and leave a message but I decided,
with a presence of mind, to just cool it down inside myself a bit
- deep breaths - and go about giving myself a little snack of
a bowl of brown rice! People are not perfect niether me nor them..
for what I seem to cope with at times is a sense of 'not getting angry at a well that has no water.'
That image helps and helped.
I need to learn to say no when I can - but if I can honestly help them out - why would I say no?
I am already so dependent on them - it feels a kind of duty.
The rice it's just done in the microwave now - so I'll go
and grab it...I think things are good. :)

Hope you work through the challenges with grace and lean on the people you trust. With honesty.
A bowl of brown rice - hmmmm. That doesn’t sound very yummy to me hehe.
i like the well image. it works beautifully.
a mantra i like for helping me calm my relationship snot knots is
wear you love like an armor and forgiveness like a shield.
to be human is to be imperfect.
Thanks Nikki and Arfie!
