I think writing makes one feel so much more in control of their own thoughts and trials in daily life.<br /><br /> Also, writing for me stops it from spinning around my head at rapid speeds, saves me from overly thinking certain things, and is such a release.<br /><br />I love your blog!BundlesofBlossomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02245622568098914562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434988429360093810.post-41792906828214713982010-07-29T19:16:01.698-05:002010-07-29T19:16:01.698-05:00Thank you for sharing your insight.

(Or deciding that you needn't.)<br /><br />What you say doesn't necessarily mean "in denial" to me. Some alcoholics think everybody else is too; I'm not like that. It's just that I found, in AA, lots of help in learning how to think in a way that made life a lot more positive and less irritating, and thought you might find that too.Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.com
