Dear Tammie,

I know what you mean. This is why we have this disease. We don´t handle well the natural flow of life.

One thing that struck me in the Far East was how serene the people were. The people I talked to told me that they take their fate stoically, because there is no choice. Life is like the ocean, they told me, you go with the tide. Take everything with serenity, good or bad. That´s the true Yin/Yang philosophy.

I believe we can learn this attitude by applying some cognitive therapy, which is based on the true fact that: A. Life is unfair,
and the sooner you accept this, the happier you´ll be!

Hope this helps,



Use adversity
