I guess we're not taught to take care of ourselves. Are we?<br /><br />Thank you for this compassionate, generous post. It seems even our more privileged western world is torn by incredible despair these days. <br /><br />When I hit bottom a while back, I did something different and tape recorded self affirmations. It's kinda strange but I played it repeatedly, to undo the old tapes and replace them with positive messages - even while I was sleeping. That and friends who remind me of my strength, pulled me through.<br /><br />Keep faith, Roland.Rawknrobyn.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15997241410192066577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-18007042540386855992014-07-10T23:23:16.680-05:002014-07-10T23:23:16.680-05:00Thank you.
