We started every day in group. We had to state 2 things

1. A good quality in you

2. A small acheivable goal that will further healing

So here goes

1. I am a goodlistener

2. I will finish decorating and bask in the glow of the lights

We have to remember the beauty of our souls, every day, the gifts God has given us and the lessons w have taught ourselves...it is critical to remember the good and not dwell on the bad

Love you
Maggie

I am a good person.

I will make it though this winter.

That is a struggle in itself. Maybe too big of a goal, but I tried...

Thanks for starting this thread Maggie...

Hugs, Karen

Love you guys! Maggie you're an awesome lady.

1. I am a nice person (at heart, though I may not always feel that way)
2. I will continue posting and reading Healingwell posts this week. It gets me through knowing I might help others and that there are others helping me.

Thank you :)

I'm a little late with this reply, Maggie.. I do think you're awesome. But maybe I'm biased. Like I said, you remind me of my mom. And we are all works in progress!

1) I am intelligent (not to toot my own horn but.. toot toot & beep beep!)
2) I will get all of my projects done at work this week

I never give up
I forgive all

Some may read this as I think people have something against them, as i said I forgive all, it is about letting go of all hostilities, anger, resentment. You may have a grudge against a relative, a friend or some other a criminal but when you let go you feel better.

I was listening to TV a few years ago and a woman was on it, she was on death row. How she faced death made me feel ashamed of myself. I guess we can learn something from everyone, you just have to be open to learn. I believe strongly in my philosphy, never give up and forgive all, I dont care if know one believes me, I know what I write is true.

Stephen

Forgiveness is essential for our sous and spirits to thrive. I completely agree with you. I have struggled at several times to forgive somebody but i have managed after many years to forgive those people that did me harm.
Your tenacity is contagious also. We must never give up.

1. I work on forgiving people and not holding grudges.
2. I will run errands today even tho I am fighting a bad fibro flare

Take care my friends

I hate fibro and i hate panic attacks im actually in the middle of a pretty darn good one now, im scared, i hope you feel better i see we have similar problems, take care
Posted 12/27/2011 11:26 AM (GMT 0)
Hey scared-

LOL! We sure do..I feel for you too!! I'm sorry you are having a bad attack..I had a good one just a coupla days ago , so full of dread, it was hard to breathe or move or think. You know I came here and posted and got so much support, it helped me thru it.

I think the holidays have thrown alot of us into a flare..I thought I had the flu and finally realized it was fibro rearing its ugly head again. I made myself do laundry and one errand yesterday, still flaring this am but life goes on!!

Are you not on any anti depressants? Just xanax seems paltry meds for all those conditions. Let us know how you are.. I care and understand. Breathe deep\\

Take care
Maggie

Hi Scared,

Relax and breathe, in through the nose, out through the mouth. It is called smelling the roses and blowing out the candles. Do this ten to twenty times. and see if you feel any better. Remember to relax.

Hugs, Karen
