Dear Pink24
I am glad reading, meditating and praying eases your mind. In fact, i admire you. I am studying Philosophy and my relation with praying was weakened due to the stressing questioning of the fundamental elements of the universe. By that time i have realised that i have lost the vital aspect of living and i have given up my self on questions revolving around the reasons to live. I said to my self <
Indeed you do everything that you can. Even though the difficult times that you are experiencing you continue to contribute with your stories thanks to the art of storymaking and through teaching.
I sincerely believe that every emotion has to be accepted and not repressed, touched with understaning and not with fighting passions or avoidance. After all we are human beings and we must embrace our incecurities. Our imperfections.
Don’t forget that its ok to worry, just not too much, not all the time. Its ok to want security, just do not think that people will abandon a wonderfull person who has contributed with courage (yes courage it takes courage to get out there and work, or publish a novel). In fact do not think that people will abandon a person at all. Take away all your achievements and you are still beautiful!
I haven’ t achieved a lot in my life (by modern society standards). Should i fall into despair? No. All that is needed sometimes is to ask for help and it is given. By the right people 🙂 Maybe the people who you asked for help until now were unable or unwilling to help you. Remember, we can help someone not only by giving him money. We can also be a good listener, teacher or friend. At least that is what i felt when you answered me. I said to my self it seems to me that communicating with you has helped me and you as well. And not a penny spent 🙂
What else can i say. Not much. Just surround your self with people that you love and they love you. Keep doing what you love also. And when is the right time to stop worrying? Well, when worrying doesnt prepare you for a difficult situation anymore instead it takes away your abillity to enjoy any social situation! 🙂 🙂
I enjoyed talking with you.
Take care
George
