The issue I guess that I am supposed to talk about today is stress.
We all suffer from it , it is the common illness. The common statement
I hear that makes me wince, is well her stress or his stress is not as bad
as my stress. Whoa Nellie! Everyone's stress is self perceived as well as the value of that stress
is a self perception. I am positive, mine would not seem as huge to some people as it
does to me, but I have learned over the years, theirs , mine , and ours. all has its own
value.
The question or the answer is what do we do about it.
Some people say , well take a vacation silly. Automatically we all drum up our own dream
vacation in our mind, well what do you do when you cant afford that? Or maybe its not
the money aspect as much as you cant afford the time? Its called forcible stress management.
One day , at a time for some , One hour for others. Whatever will bring you down to your center
is acceptable. A nap, a walk, retail therapy, but make no mistake it is a necessity. If we choose
to n ot manage our stress we will break as a human being. That's neither positive or negative, just
a fact of life.
Everyday you breath because you need oxygen, you eat because you need nourishment. One of the
most important life lessons I have come to understand thus far, is stress management is as
essential to a healthy life as the air we breathe.
God Bless
