Had a really major setback today & it's bogged me down all morning. Seeing this popping up in my mail was truly heaven sent. Thank you

Yes! The truth is, an outburst, far from providing relief, causes you another problem. There may be a path to better, but that ain’t it.

I love the way you set the scene so well. It t could be the start of a novel. 😊🥰

As could anybody's atory, no scene set just life 🙂

I guess. I think he puts details in though to give the scene depth; you can imagine being there. 😊

That is mindfulness working! Mindfulness, moment to moment awareness takes practice, and over time you begin to recognize your moments as being familiar and realize last time I didn't respond well, this time I will pause and proceed with wisdom. That is what you are describing, using your wisdom. Wisdom is only found after much practice in life itself. The Stoics give us a headstart on how to be wise! Thank you for sharing so we can become more wise!

The power of a pause.

Writing something on it. I see this all too often, especially when all patients are critically ill and relatives are impatient. A pause goes a long way.
