While working on some other writings I have in the works today, I was reliving some past memories that were a bit on the harsh side. I found myself laughing at what I went through and how I handled things at the time. Laughing....
While I thought this was a very strange reaction, it dawned on me that actually I had let all the negative vibs go. I no longer thought of things as a tragedy or felt like having a mini pity party. I find myself in a good place. I enjoy being able to see the comical aspects of trying to work my way out of rough situations. The flashback of " what was I thinking" and "did that really come out of my mouth" permeates my reflections. The situation usually seemed more dramatic than they actually were. I'll have to remember that next time I get myself in a fix. I think in general, if we find ourselves in a tough situation where we are wanting to overreact and temporary loose our composure; we need to take a cleansing deep breath, in through the nose and out the mouth...smile and force a small giggle..the people around us might think we've lost it, but deep inside our psyche our blood pressures will drop, we relax a bit and the problem wont seem so invasive. In turn, we are better off dealing in an effective positive way. This process sounds a bit silly, but it works. Give it a try. Make it a personal experiment. Peace~
