Guest guest Posted April 19, 1999 Report Share Posted April 19, 1999 le, Yikes! You sound like you're in quick sand! I've had all kinds come my way, too. Just like you, when you think it can't get any worse, more sh-- happens. As if health problems aren't enough, you gotta struggle with finances too. Life's a bitch, eh? I turn to nature when things get real bad. I love to garden because when my hands are in the dirt, I tend to forget my problems when out in the backyard. Try to find a quiet place, some soft relaxing music, maybe a nice hot bubble bath, a glass of wine (hehehe ) and force your mind to escape even just for a little while.... Everyone: Here's a poem I like to read just to put things in their place. Always helps me.... Come my friends.... 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world, For my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset, And though we are not now That strength which in old days Moved Earth and Heaven, That which we are, we are: One temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate But strong in Will. To Strive, To seek, to find, and not to yield. A. Tenessant A good night to all, Ana Casinha, 34 Woodbridge, Ont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
