(14:59:57) Carlos.Martinez3: we can find that all of these can bring us as much joy as pain
(15:00:33) Carlos.Martinez3: There are times the sun shines bright and the grass is green and theres nothing really wrong...
(15:00:49) Carlos.Martinez3: there are days it rains and storms

(15:01:55) Carlos.Martinez3: theres an old question asked by phyciatrists that often starts with...
(15:02:05) Carlos.Martinez3: "if you were in a dark room..."
(15:02:38) Carlos.Martinez3: this is a simple and easy illustration to say if and when your not in control...what do you do?

(15:03:57) Carlos.Martinez3: to say these days wont ever come is kina silly and foolish
(15:04:15) Carlos.Martinez3: To be ready is wise
(15:04:46) Carlos.Martinez3: what happens when we loose our focus or even better, realise we are far away from our path?
(15:05:07) Carlos.Martinez3: it is possible and it happens often.
(15:05:26) Carlos.Martinez3: its possible for rain to carry people out to the sea...
(15:05:49) Carlos.Martinez3: its possible for us to abandon things from fear...

(15:10:06) Carlos.Martinez3: on applicable way we can use this is commonly know as a call to home.
(15:10:11) Carlos.Martinez3: The return.

(15:15:55) Carlos.Martinez3: RETURN or HOME yourself to the basics, to the core , to the beginning and to the place you first fell chose to focus on things the way you did

(15:19:49) Carlos.Martinez3: Take the time you need to home. RE center yourself. remind yourself. enourage your self
or, just fall in love all over again!
(15:20:26) Carlos.Martinez3: I often take a weekend to go to a hotel and jump in a pool - drink some beer go out and re set-
now with kids its more like make a fort eat pizza watch a movie and tell stories-
what ever your fancy- take some time to return.
