What is your problem?
Why are you not centered, emotionally and intellectually?

Whom do you let make you this way? When did you surrender your happiness to the thoughts and actions of others?

What is really stopping you from moving on and progressing, individually?

Don't be scared. ;)

5. When you feel you are falling apart
you have to go back to the basics.

Force yourself to: eat healthy food. Go to an exercise class. Breathe. Take your vitamins. Clean up one room. Take one day at a time.

Small stuff, but it's a place to start.

3. "Don't be scared."
In general, that's very good advice, as fear may be the single greatest limiter of human potential.

6. Yup! Fear is the greatest weapon in their arsenal.
Easy to succumb to if we're not vigilant!

8. You.
But mostly I ignore you. Occasionally, you're interesting, and I hate you for it.

12. Words to take to heart.
Very good post! When you get right down to it the only thing stopping you from having these things is yourself.

13. Wonderful words.
It's the power of oneself that propels us forward, through surf and storm.

15. Well, my dear Floog.....
These are ALL good questions...and I have no answers at all.......

For tonight I feel off balance emotionally .......

And I have surrendered some of my happiness to the actions of others...

But I am paralyzed....unable to move......

I'll be OK tomorrow, though.....

I just need some time to come to grips with my situation......

It's hopeless, but not serious.......

At least I'm not scared.......
