You can never have enough...

Years ago I came across a psychotherapy style developed by an ozzie psychologist, called ACT. Acceptance and commitment therapy. It reminded me of the Desiderata and the Serenity Prayer in its advice to accept the things we cannot change and commit to living well in spite of them.

Rather than rail against the unfairness of life with its slings and arrows we should devote our strength to do what we can with what we have.

Always seemed like a damned fine road map to me. If a tad challenging at times... 

Totally agree. 

I havent seen my twin brother for 23 years... And have two more generations from him I have never met.

But the bonus is, we can "See" each other online.. And I remember joking with a friend when we were 18 that wouldnt it be funny if we could video call. That was 1983ish. 

Ohh Dear Jan not good re the crockpot. 

I saw a post on FB the other Day. A woman saying she can't do this, that or the next thing.. and I thought she needs the pep talk I often use, seldom listen to.. I told her to try and alter her thinking to what she Can still do. Alot of people have agreed.

I have a nephew in the gold mines inland from Kalgoorlie. Sadly it ruined his marriage, but I think the biggest problem was living apart, more than the mines themselves. 

Im sacking the house keeper.. How dare she leave me without Coco powder when I feel like Fudge... Shes on Notice. lol
