  • Making plans...

  • @quixotic_life Always good to have something to look forward to!

    I bury myself in work when everything else seems to suck. Though, I guess for someone who's just been laid off, they could replace this with applying like a madman.

  • @tashy I was going to say the exact same thing!!! 1. Music
    1.5 Potatoes!!!

  • Traveling to places I've never been to before.

  • My solo Tantra practice and my connection and devotion to the One Energy.

  • I remember that how I "feel" is largely chemistry. "It's just bad chemistry". How I "feel' is irrelevant.
    The best I can do is make the best decisions I can, in my situation, based on the information I have at the time.
    If I've been true to those, then I can never second-guess my decisions. I was able to relax, when I stopped rehashing past decisions. Because I can't change them and I made the best decision at the time.
    This has helped me cope with a lot of the recent mayhem and change.

  • Massages, facials, Mother Nature!!! , my resilience... knowing that this too will pass. I allow myself to feel bad for a day( or however long I need) and make sure to wake up the next day as if I have a new lease on life

    Hugs 💗

  • Finally getting a dog , it really helped me a lot just
    Hugging him , and being around my dog really helped me , and I would say music and writing for sure !

    it’s not me to wallow in self pity. I get off my a** and make the changes I want to make. but essentially I rely on my myself. my self preservation and perseverance to get through any problem I face.

    Faith in God, music, massages, and pizza sustain me when things suck. Although I notice also When I drink into deep depression I lose myself in binge watching DC or Marvel shows or movies. It helps me forget real life.

  • Music, dark chocolate, tea, wine, any combination of carbs and cheese, a good book, and a long hot bath.

  • As for me, it is my relationship with Jesus. This world is full of evil an the crap that results from it. I have had my share. I was hit head on by a uhaul while on a motorcycle and was told by every one I would never walk again but God whispered to me to believe Him not man. Today I can run all those people around a tennis court, have windsurfed and do much more than walk. My second daughter had a heart beat that from the get go even I knew was a mess. The echo showed a deformed ventricle and valve. The whole time we were told open heart surgery at birth was needed, but God said trust in Me and I had peace about it. On the day of birth the team was ready and after birth they did a scan of the heart and saw no abnormalities and a perfect heart rate with no intervention that even twelve years later has never had a hiccup. I have other stories as well. God never promised a problem free life. But, while I have walked with Him every time the storm came He was right there handing me an umbrella. And the perfected eternity to come makes any “inconvenience “ here well worth it.

    My two cents
