"The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis.' One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger - but recognize the opportunity."

One of Those Days

It's one of those days. I usually manage to not think of the past, but once in awhile I just have one of those days where it comes crashing down around me and I'm swamped by awareness of then versus now. There are so many things I need to do, but I just want to go hide under my covers.

I ended up cooking (between naps) most of the day. Staying busy really is the way to go. When those moods hit, it is best to keep my mind occupied with simple processes. If I think too hard, that can be a bad thing, but not thinking at all is a definite disaster. Mundane tasks really are the ideal coping mechanism.
