Indeed....I think especially when you're in a
stressful emotional situation it's hard to just
be in the moment and not get swept away in your
thoughts. That's what I'm dealing with...I'm getting
really swept away in my thoughts a great deal and not
very present. The mindfulness meditation helps some...
but only for a little while and the stuff comes back.
Maybe I need stronger drugs...it's nearly impossible
for me to just put this stuff away, I think about it
24/7...it's wearing my ass out...I long for peace...and
it's frustrating to know that me, and my mind, is
the one causing all the turmoil. But, as always,
the answer probably lies in loving kindness, compassion--
not beating myself up for being stressed out and
analytical...
