Hi Richie,
Thanks for that story!
I am in the process these days, of trying to keep steering my mind back to the positives. That is such a good story as to how to think positively.
I'm attempting to keep things in perspective & one way in which I can do it is to remember how things were last year at this time, & compare the 'now' problems to THOSE BIG ones!!!
Thanks very much for the scissors story.
By the way, I'm very interested in reading what Seneca wrote to help you be more detached. I cannot see myself wading through the wikipedia site in search of it - I do thank you very much for including that link.
Were there maybe one or two works in particular by Seneca that helped you?
thx, Kath
