Stephen,

I know this is late in the day but I wanted to send you a massive CONGRATULATIONS.  Making the switch from negative thinking to positive thinking is one huge leap which can only benefit you.  We all have an ego.  Embrace it.  Let it work for you.  Befriend it.  You are who you are.  Love that person.

Depression is the opposite of expression.  Keep expressing yourself both through the written word and the spoken word in a way that allows you to stay safe.  (Depression is unexpressed anger/grief).  Responsibility is the opposite of blame.  Continue to take responsibility for yourself.  Brilliant.

Keep smiling and one day someone like me will smile back.  As the saying goes, if someone hasn’t got a smile, give them yours.

Lots of love and light

Peggy
