Dear Xenopus,

A thought for the day:

“To overcome the anxieties and depressions of contemporary life, Individuals must become independent of the social environment to the degree that they no longer respond exclusively in terms of its rewards and punishments. To achieve such autonomy, a person has to learn to provide rewards to herself. She has to develop the ability to find enjoyment and purpose regardless of external circumstances.”

Use your critical abilities to find “ways” towards happiness within rather than a critique of your ever move and that of others all the time. The balance point is missing right now – it’s too much about work and serious things – when was the last time you really relaxed and enjoyed yourself?

Regards,
Nina
