mmm ce bunatati
Nu mai am rabdare, vreau sa plece seful acasa ca sa pot sa mananc. Gandul la ridichea aia ma zapaceste de cap serios. Si am mancat dimineata o portie de iaurt si pe la 11 una de supa de taitei. Noa dar eu vreau orez cu carnat si ridiche. As putea manca si asa cu el aici dar nu vreau sa se uite la mine cum mananc si nici nu vreau sa-l ametesc cu mirosul ce-o sa se emane cand deschid cutia cu salata de ridiche hihi
Aci mi-s. 
Da, mah, astia care vor sa fie salvati trebe lasati in pace pana le trece. Si de vrei sa ii salvezi, n-ai cum, ca le place rolul. Bineinteles ca o sa dea vina pe tine, trebe curaj ca sa fii responsabil pentru viata ta. E mai comod sa dai vina pe vreme, pe sistem, pe pisica...
Oferi cand vrei, cat ai chef. Io mi-am dat seama ca mai bine ofer cand chiar simt, decat sa ofer cand stiu ca ar trebui, dar am retineri. Cand am retineri, nu ofer cu adevarat, e mai mult din obligatie. Obigatiile astea pot fi si spirituale, de genul "asa-i place universului sa fac, deci fac asa, cu toate ca io nu prea am chef".
Normal ca esti de nota 10. Meriti absolut toate darurile pe care ti le da existenta, iar ea ofera o infinitate de daruri.

Leirn azi te.am citat, intr-o discutie cu mine insami ... ce ciudat suna 
Sunt la serviciu. Ieri am produs cosuletze de ciocolata, 9 la numar. Le-am umplut cu bombonele, caramele si drajeuri. Le-am facut impreuna cu colega mea. Ea a luat 8 pe care le da de cadou. Eu am zis ca 1 imi ajunge (pentru psiho). Azi am decis sa mai fabric vreo 3-4 mai incolo. Daca nu acuma atunci cand?? Am imprumutat de la B o carte buna. Poate deseara o sa am vreme s-o citesc. Sunt la serviciu dar nu am nici o venire... o sa-mi ocup timpul cu ceva. Vre-un ceas am de muncit pentru firma. Dupa aia mai vad ce fac.
E primul craciun care nu ma sperie. Ma plictiseste putin desi m-am tinut deoparte de magazine si de radio si de last christmas I gave you my heart.
Maine merg pentru 3 ore la fostii mei socrii, cu B. Pe la 4 ma intorc in oras si o sa petrec seara cu prietena mea. Doar noi doua porumbitze
Sunt linistita si fericita.

Faine cosuletele de cioco! Am facut si eu candva , le-am umplut cu bomboane si le-am oferit cadou. Mi-a placut sa le fac, aproape mi-am facut mie acele daruri, cui le-am oferit n-a apreciat...
Ma bucur ca esti impacata cu tine de Craciun. Asa trebuie sa fie. Iti doresc sa-ti pastrezi pacea si linistea sufleteasca is sa fii fericita pentru azi, de fiecare data.Pana la urma n-a gresit cel ce-a spus: traieste clipa!

Dasca astea de azi le-am aranjat, ca am luat niste ciocolata aiurea doar pentru ca era la portie mica si zic sa economisesc niste bani eh si cine se zgarceste la graunte ii ies cosurile moi de tot )
Noa asta este!
Craciun fericit tuturor!

Craciun fericit tuturor!
Am avut un craciun linistit. Am petrecut mult timp cu prietena mea si am facut plimbari de cate 2 ore. Mi-am hranit si spiritul alaturi de ea. Plus ca am invatat niste retete faine de tot. Uimitor cat de mult se aseamana bucataria maghiara cu cea transilvana...
Zilele astea pana la Anul Nou se anunta linistite. Azi o sa dam Evei o mana de ajutor sa-si aduca acasa si sa-si monteze o comoda. Maine seara la prieteni. Apoi urmeaza doua zile libere, una pentru leneveala din aia extrema si una pentru minte - o sa mergem la muzeul regional sa vedem o expozitie despre lilieci, e durere ce putin ofera orasul pentru sezonul de iarna...

mi-am cumparat cadoul de anul nou: un timer si o chestie de aia de bagat puiul la cuptor. A fost fain. Am fost cu Eva sa-si ridice o comoda comandata si platita de fiica-sa. Apoi am montat-o. 4 ore! Au dat 200 de euro pe o mobila de carton...

Este adevarat ca mobilele sunt scumpe iar calitatea este adeseori mediocra .Insa am invatat ca se poate negocia si daca cauti gasesti si calitate.Noi am cumparat in toamna in camera juniorului mobila noua.Este de necrezut ce concurenta exista pe piata mobilei.Aceeasi mobila am gasit-o in mai multe locuri si pana la urma ne-am hotarat la doua care erau mai aproape.Si E. a tot sunat de la unul la altul ca tocmai am capatat rabat la celalalt de atata , pot si ei sa coboare cu pretul ? Si asa mai departe.Nu ai sa crezi insa cu ultimul pret oferit am fost mai mult decat multumiti.Apoi am luat busul de la firma si ne-am adus-o singuri acasa si ne-am apucat impreuna si am montat-o , ne-a trebuit doua zile dar am economisit 250 euro.
Ca in fiecare an, am facut azi sarmale cu pasat in oala de lut, au iesit foarte gustoase! Am facut paine, foarte gustoasa si aia! Am avut oaspeti la pranz azi, acuma seara lucru.
An nou fericit tuturor!

Planurile mele pentru 2011:
- sa adopt tot mai mult un stil de viata activ
- sa fie pentru mine un an al miscarii pentru ca "Cine nu isi face acum timp pentru sport o sa trebuiasca sa-si faca mai tarziu pentru a fi bolnav"
- sa continui sa explorez si sa imbratisez spiritualitatea
- sa ma mut in I
Le scriu, le constientizez si le dau drumul. Nu le las sa ma obsedeze sau sa ma grabeasca. Toate au un timp al lor, un ritm al lor, la fel si eu.

Am jucat aseara 2 ture de nu te supara frate. Ciudat zarurile astea... am fost tentata sa le psihanalizez dar pana la urma am acceptat ceea ce mi-au oferit.
Am nevoie de 2 noptiere si o comoda care sa se potriveasca intr-un dormitor cu pat negru, de fier forjat...
M-am trezit c-un regret mare in inima azi. Cunosc procesul. Si nu stiu cum i s-ar putea spune pe romaneste. Se poate jeli si altceva decat pe cineva mort? Se poate jeli o pierdere mare?
Ce frumoasa e meditatia de azi...
You are reading from the book The Language of Letting Go
Nurturing Self Care
...there isn't a guidebook for setting boundaries. Each of us has our own guide inside ourselves. If we continue to work at recovery, our boundaries will develop. They will get healthy and sensitive. Our selves will tell us what we need to know, and we'll love ourselves enough to listen.
—Beyond Codependency
What do we need to do to take care of ourselves?
Listen to that voice inside. What makes you angry? What have you had enough of? What don't you trust? What doesn't feel right? What can't you stand? What makes you uncomfortable? What do you want? Need? What don't you want and need? What do you like? What would feel good?
In recovery, we learn that self care leads us on the path to God's will and plan for our life. Self-care never leads away from our highest good; it leads toward it.
Learn to nurture that voice inside. We can trust ourselves. We can take care of ourselves. We are wiser than we think. Our guide is within, ever present. Listen to, trust, and nurture that guide.
Today, I will affirm that lama gift to the Universe and myself. I will remember that nurturing self care delivers that gift in its highest form.

Twenty Five ways to manifest your Ideal Reality.
=============================================
Here are a few simple steps towards creating a new and improved reality for ourselves and others.
1. Start the New Year with the Attitude of Gratitude
Take some time to make a list of all the persons, animals, plants and other beings, objects, situations, comforts and other forms of abundance that you could feel grateful for.
- pentru L., pentru prietenele mele mai vechi si pentru cele mai noi, pentru Gino, pentru orhideele mele, pentru pacea sufleteasca, stabilitatea financiara, sanatatea trupeasca
You might even want to include situations and persons who have made your life difficult and as result you have become stronger, wiser, more spiritually oriented.
- pentru tata si pentru sora mea, pentru vizita in Romania. Am invatat lectii cu carul din acea situatie anume.
Make this list today and then read it every day for 30 days upon waking and or before sleeping and add to it each day as you discover more to be grateful for.
OK!
2. Clarify and specify your ideals. What would fulfill you and make you happy? Write down the following descriptions in the present tense as if they already exist.
a. Your Ideal Self - make a list of words and or short phrases that describe how you would like to be as a person, physically, emotionally, mentally, socially and spiritually. What kind of character you would like to have.
Sunt un om echilibrat, modest si intelept.Nu aduc daune de nici un fel nimanui si nici mie. Ma iubesc si ma apreciez pentru ceea ce am fost si ceea ce am devenit, constienta ca fara ceea ce "am fost" azi nu as fi devenit ceea ce "sunt". Traiesc fiecare zi cu convingerea ca sunt ok, ca fiecare lucru este la locul menit lui, ca fiecare situatie este exact ceea ce am nevoie la momentul respectiv. Eu sunt ok si toata lumea din jur este ok. Citesc in continuare foarte mult, adaug si (mult mai) multa miscare in aer liber in viata mea. Revin la contactul cu natura, cu animalele. Fricile le simt si le dau drumul, le inmanez puterii divine. Fac planuri. La constientizez si le dau drumul. Nu obsedez. Raman in prezent. Imi golesc mintea de ganduri, dau nervilor mei suprasolicitati de evenimentele din trecut posibilitatea sa se relaxeze, sa se destinda.
b. Your Ideal Life - write down words and or short phrases that describe how you would like your life situations to be. The type of home, relationships, work and activities that will bring you happiness, meaning peace and fulfilment in your life.
Traiesc frugal, aproape minimalist. Fiecare lucru isi are un loc dar nu fiecare loc are un lucru. Relatia cu partenerul de viata continua sa fie stabila, calma, lina. Continuam sa ne trezim dimineata si sa mergem fiecare in directia lui ca sa ne intalnim apoi pentru mesele zilei. Serile sunt calme, ma uit la tv, ma joc cu Lia, stau la povesti cu prietene venite sa ma viziteze. Strang plante medicinale. Usuc legume, fac conserve pentru iarna. Meditatia devine ca si spalatul pe dinti, o obisnuinta. Lucrez pentru bani. Nu pentru cariera si nu pentru lux. Lucrez pentru banii de paine si pentru a-mi face o infrastructura de prieteni si cunostinte.
c. Your Ideal Society - write down words and or short phrases that describe how you imagine the perfect society of evolved beings. How will people think, feel and interact? How will this society function? What kind or relationships will exist between citizens?
Imi amintesc de un episod din star trek in care cineva din timpurile noastre ajunge in viitor si il intreaba pe capitan cat castiga. El ii ranspunde ca in secolul respectiv (candva, in viitor) nu mai exista bani ci se munceste despre evolutia personala. - Nu mai exista foame. Resursele se folosesc cu cap si alimentele sunt corect raspandite pe planeta. Tragem toti la aceeasi caruta: sa ne salvam planeta si sa evoluam personal si spiritual. Medicamentele sunt disponibile pentru toti. Durerea nu mai este o conditie a saraciei. Psihologia si psihiatria lucreaza mana in mana, devin una. Se recunoaste sufletul ca si a treia dimensiune a fiintei umane si i se acorda o atentie marita.
3. Daily read the above four lists and descriptions, supplementing whatever comes to your mind. These descriptions should be in the present as if these realities already exist.
4. Daily visualize the above four mentioned realities as if they already exist.
a. All that you feel grateful for that you already have.
b. Your ideal self - that you are already who you want to be.
c. Your Ideal life - where you already have all that you need to be happy and to manifest your life purpose.
d. The ideal society - where you already live with other evolved souls who are all behaving with love, unity, equality, respect and justice.
As you do this feel grateful that all of the above are and have become manifest in your life.
These simple steps will enable you to manifest your ideal reality.

Sarumana de link. Mi-a prins bine. Pentru ca acum sunt manioasa... Mersi mult
ieri s-a intamplat ceva care mi-a confirmat ca unele lectii viata e in stare sa mi le ofere la nesfarsit daca eu nu-s (inca) in stare sa le pricep
Azi sunt recunoscatoare vietii pentru linistea din dimineata asta.
Azi sunt recunoscatoare vietii pentru linistea din dimineata asta.
e simplu.... pentru inceput... e bine doar sa-ti doresti SA FII in stare sa le pricepi...
Hai, porneste la drum... fara frica

Relationships
If we are unhappy without a relationship, we'll probably be unhappy with one as well. A relationship doesn't begin our life; a relationship doesn't become our life. A relationship is a continuation of life.
— Beyond Codependency
Relationships are the blessing and bane of recovery. Relationships are where we take our recovery show on the road.
Each day, we are faced with the prospect of functioning in several different relationships. Sometimes, we choose these relationships; sometimes, we don't. The one choice we usually have in our relationships concerns our own behavior. In recovery from codependency, our goal is to behave in ways that demonstrate responsibility for us.
We're learning to acknowledge our power to take care of ourselves in our relationships. We're learning to be intimate with people when possible.
Do we need to detach from someone who we've been trying to control? Is there someone we need to talk to, even though what we have to say may be uncomfortable? Is there someone we've been avoiding because we're afraid to take care of ourselves with that person? Do we need to make an amend? Is there someone we need to reach out to, or show love?
Recovery is not done apart from our relationships. Recovery is done by learning to own our power and to take care of ourselves in relationships.
Today, I will participate in my relationships to the best of my ability. I will make myself available for closeness and sharing with people I trust. I will ask for what I need and give what feels right.

Am avut azi o zi activa in ideea ca maine stai si frec menta dar nu-mi iese c-am deschis calendarul cand am gatat cu tate si vad ca pe maine am niste programari... noah asta e!
Am auzit ieri de ceasul alimentatiei si acuma-l studiez
de doua programari m-am absolvit ba cu brio ba tras-impins, cum am putut. Una am amanat-o pe maine. Una urmeaza s-o aman. Nu-s bine. Am o usoara febra... azi vreau sa fiu singura. Am dat prea mult zilele trecute si am obosit, mi-au secat resursele. O sa fac niste treaba prin casa apoi ma pun sa citesc un ceas doua. Pe maine.
Ai citit? Ce-ai citit? Ti-a placut?
Mda, suna ca te-ai cam extenuat si organismul iti da semne sa iei o pauza. Sper ca ti-a prins bine pauza

Buna dimineata Laura! Am citit Well-Being for Dummies, primele pagini, am surfat aiurea pe net aseara si m-am uitat la tv. Acuma, la ora asta is inca-n pat... dar imediat ma ridic, fac patul, imi fac rutina si-apoi sa vezi ca ma bag in vana cu restul hihihi
Eu romane nu am mai citit de foarte multi ani. Poate unu, maximum 2 in ultimii 4-5 ani dar nu imi amintesc acuma care au fost alea. In rest tot publicatii de psihologie despre copiii adulti si alte chestiuni care ma intereseaza.

Buna dimineata Carmen
Aaaaa, aia e carte buna de citit! Cred ca si mie mi-ar prinde bine.
Ma bucur ca te-ai relaxat cum ai avut tu chef si sper ca te simti mai bine
Nici eu n-am mai citit romane de mult timp! In ultimii ani ori citesc publicatii de genul celor spuse de tine (mi-am comandat "How to deal with difficult people" de pe amazon, din America. Trebuie s-o primesc pe la sfarsitul lu' ianuarie, inceputul lu' februarie, abia astept s-o citesc!!) ori povestiri scurte - din acelea scrise de muieri pentru muieri, carti de citit prin tren sau pe buda, cand nu te poti concentra prea mult, da' la care nici nu-ti trebuie mult creier. Nu mai am rabdare sa citesc romane, acum sunt in perioada de a afla cine sunt, cum sunt, cum ma port cu mine si cu altii - la fel ca tine. Si e logic sa ne incante carti de self-help
Ah, am mai luat una de pe amazon: He's scared, she's scared - bla-bla-bla, ca nu mai tin minte
O carte despre relatii si despre fricile cu care fiecare partener vine in relatie, comportamentele ce deriva din fricile alea si sabotarea relatiilor. Evident ca abia astept s-o citesc si pe aia
Noah, sper sa ai o zi minunata

Nici eu n-am mai citit romane de mult timp! In ultimii ani ori citesc publicatii de genul celor spuse de tine (mi-am comandat "How to deal with difficult people" de pe amazon, din America. Trebuie s-o primesc pe la sfarsitul lu' ianuarie, inceputul lu' februarie, abia astept s-o citesc!!) ori povestiri scurte - din acelea scrise de muieri pentru muieri, carti de citit prin tren sau pe buda, cand nu te poti concentra prea mult, da' la care nici nu-ti trebuie mult creier. Nu mai am rabdare sa citesc romane, acum sunt in perioada de a afla cine sunt, cum sunt, cum ma port cu mine si cu altii - la fel ca tine. Si e logic sa ne incante carti de self-help
Ah, am mai luat una de pe amazon: He's scared, she's scared - bla-bla-bla, ca nu mai tin minte
O carte despre relatii si despre fricile cu care fiecare partener vine in relatie, comportamentele ce deriva din fricile alea si sabotarea relatiilor. Evident ca abia astept s-o citesc si pe aia Noah, sper sa ai o zi minunata
noah deci is in elementul meu si savurez un fenomen aproape unic in an: e soare dar cum se topeste zapada se aude de parca ar ploua! Nu e frig si nu e cald, e perfect, am avut toata ziua ferestrele deschise, am sortat si aruncat o gramada de carti si alte hartii, ma simt usurata, am mai mult spatiu in casa si in suflet
O sa tin doar cartile de psih. Cele in si de germana le fac cadou lui Diego si Meli care invata germana. Putinele in engleza care le am (Charles Dickens
) le pastrez, cele de gatit le-am sortat si dau din ele dar mai si tin pana data viitoare... ideal ar fi sa ajung la minimum de carti dar avand in vedere ca de acasa mi s-a spus ca cine are o biblioteca mare inseamna ca e citit parca mi greu sa ma limitez la 2-3 carti. Pacat pentru ca de fapt se gaseste totul si in versiune electronica. Sa vedem ce mai fac in sensul asta...
Sunt fericita.

notez pe azi ca am povestit la telefon cu cineva cu care de cate ori vorbesc am o zi mega-buna
i-am facut prietenei mele amprenta burtii in ghips. Copila vine cam pe 26 ianuarie. O iesit foarte fain! O s-o montez pe un fond inchis la culoare - burta fiind alba - si ca si decor o sa aiba amprenta manutei si a piciorusului in aceeasi culoare cu fondul, facute la diferite varste. Is tare fericita c-o iesit asa de faina burtica

Am dat de un joc pe internet zilele trecute si tot cu ala mi-am ametit timpul. Nu-i bai ca pe cand ma jucam mi s-au si asezat unele ganduri.

What's for dinner?
Written by a 90 year old
This is something we should all read at least once a week!!!!! Make sure you read to the end!!!!!!
Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio .
"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written.
My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone everything.
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come...
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift

"We may not be able to stop all evil in the world, but I know that how we treat one another is entirely up to us. I believe that for all our imperfections, we are full of decency and goodness, and that the forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us." ~ President Obama at Tucson Memorial
am o usoara durere de cap. Azi la lucru n-am priceput o chestie dar nici nu m-am chinuit sa descalcesc mazgaliturile sefei si sa-ncerc a-i ghici gandurile, am scris pe-un post-it ca nu pricep si l-am lipit de act. Sa se exprime clar cand vrea ceva sau sa-si rezolve ea singura corespondenta ca nu-s scribarul ei. Noa si maine sigur a zice ca-s proasta si alte cele si candva mai demult asta m-ar fi deranjat si m-ar fi atins la inima, acuma ma apuca rasul cand o stiu cum se ambaleaza din orice si cum rage ca o leuta noah deci in fine... cum ziceam, am o usoara durere de cap.
Am mancat cu Eva si Meli, am mers la Uni, m-a sunat Yvonne, m-am intors si-am stat la povesti pana la 3 cu ea, am venit la lucru, a venit Meli si mi-a zis ceva care credea ca nu stiu e o comoara fata asta, la fel ca toate astea cu care m-am vazut azi, inclusiv Miri care-a venit cu Gino.
Cand m-am intors de la Uni l-am luat si pe Gino sa nu stea singur legat afara si pe drum a facut de doua ori treaba mare si n-am avut pungi la mine. Cand l-am vazut ca se pune-n pozitie am marit pasul.
Ma gandesc sa-mi iau caine.

am vazut un interviu la tv, un barbat cu dizabiltate ridicata a fost intrebat daca vreodata se mai cearta cu soarta si se intreaba ca oare de ce lui i s-a intamplat sa fie asa. Si el a raspuns "Intrebarea nu este "de ce?" ci "pentru ce?"." De atunci tot la aia ma gandesc....
Azi am munca organizatorica. Nu ma deranjeaza treaba ca atare ci deciziile pe care trebuie sa le iau 
Anyway, am ramas in urma cu 3 proiecte, d efapt cu mai multe, am observat ca daca nu-mi scriu ceva pe "lista de facut" sansele sa ma apuc de el sunt considerabil mici.
Scriu aici proiectele in ordinea in care-mi vin in minte:
- rag quilt
- cursul de H
- traducere carte
Daca-mi iau acuma caine proiectele astea o sa coboare pe lista de prioritati. Mai stau. Cine stie ce-o sa-mi scoata viata-n cale... Oricum, "simt" un caine venind

Nush de ce am simtit ca la mine ai tipat in mesajul de mai sus 
nu am tipat si mai ales nu la tine
Mi-am dat seama care e solutia situatiei in care ma gasesc si am scris-o cu litere mari ca s-o vad mai bine

ieri am mai mancat 2 morcovi, 2 mandarine si 3 snacksuri.
Clar ca snacksurile tre sa dispara! Tentatia e mare ca primesc aproape zilnic ciocolate si alte dulciuri... nimeni nu se gandeste sa ma binecuvanteze c-un buchet de salata sau de patrunjel verde... asta e...
Meditatia e azi e asa de frumoasa
You are reading from the book The Language of Letting Go
Gratitude
Sometimes in life, things happen too fast. We barely solve one problem when two new problems surface. We're feeling great in the morning, but we're submerged in misery by nightfall.
Every day we face interruptions, delays, changes, and challenges. We face personality conflicts and disappointments. Often when we're feeling overwhelmed, we can't see the lessons in these experiences.
One simple concept can get us through the most stressful of times. It's called gratitude. We learn to say, thank you, for these problems and feelings. Thank you for the way things are. I don't like this experience, but thank you anyway.
Force gratitude until it becomes habitual. Gratitude helps us stop trying to control outcomes. It is the key that unlocks positive energy in our life. It is the alchemy that turns problems into blessings, and the unexpected into gifts.
Today, I will be grateful. I will start the process of turning today's pain into tomorrow's joy.

Jurnalule raportez ca ieri am inceput unul din proiecte si dupa cate se arata azi o sa mai incep unu de pe lista mea de proiecte
In rest pace si liniste, intelegere si armonie. Ma tot conversez eu cu divinitatea mea, "prietenul meu imaginar" cum o numesc prietenele mele

am iesit 2 ceasuri la plimbare in zapada cu Gino. I-am facut prietenei mele poate ultimul masaj la burtica, bebe vine cam peste-o saptamana. Abia astept!
E fain sa lucru de dimineata. La ora asta is deja spalata, mancata si in patuc.

ieri am executat saptamanala oala de ciorba. E adunarea generala. Imi pun in borcan cu capac ramas de la muraturi si-mi aduc si la serviciu. Scot capacul metalic si incalzesc la microunde sau pe aragaz, intr-o craticioara. Am ajuns la concluzia ca m-am ingrasat din ambitia de a nu lasa nimic in farfurie sau in frigider pentru a nu arunca, risipi etc etc etc. Greu greu. Mai am de lucrat la asta... Deocamdata sunt doar 2-3 kilograme departare de greutatea mea ideala care NU este skinny.
Am dormit bine azi noapte. M-am trezit pe la miezul noptii scurt cand am auzit c-a venit masina sa curete zapada care iara sta bine. E tare frumoasa: alba, pufoasa...
Cred ca trebe sa incep sa-i arunc frisbee-ul la Gino si cu mana stanga ca altfel o sa am bicepsii dezvoltati doar la dreapta...

Nu am: griji, dureri, indoieli, spaime, frici
mai am: o jumate de kil de nuca macinata cu care o sa fac o prajitura! Am zis!

Katie Makkai "Pretty"
Pretty by Katie Makkai
When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother, “What will I be? Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? What comes next? Oh right, will I be rich?” Which is almost pretty depending on where you shop. And the pretty question infects from conception, passing blood and breath into cells. The word hangs from our mothers' hearts in a shrill fluorescent floodlight of worry.
“Will I be wanted? Worthy? Pretty?” But puberty left me this funhouse mirror dryad: teeth set at science fiction angles, crooked nose, face donkey-long and pox-marked where the hormones went finger-painting. My poor mother.
“How could this happen? You'll have porcelain skin as soon as we can see a dermatologist. You sucked your thumb. That's why your teeth look like that! You were hit in the face with a Frisbee when you were 6. Otherwise your nose would have been just fine!
“Don't worry. We'll get it fixed!” She would say, grasping my face, twisting it this way and that, as if it were a cabbage she might buy.
But this is not about her. Not her fault. She, too, was raised to believe the greatest asset she could bestow upon her awkward little girl was a marketable facade. By 16, I was pickled with ointments, medications, peroxides. Teeth corralled into steel prongs. Laying in a hospital bed, face packed with gauze, cushioning the brand new nose the surgeon had carved.
Belly gorged on 2 pints of my blood I had swallowed under anesthesia, and every convulsive twist of my gut like my body screaming at me from the inside out, “What did you let them do to you!”
All the while this never-ending chorus droning on and on, like the IV needle dripping liquid beauty into my blood. “Will I be pretty? Will I be pretty? Like my mother, unwrapping the gift wrap to reveal the bouquet of daughter her $10,000 bought her? Pretty? Pretty.”
And now, I have not seen my own face for 10 years. I have not seen my own face in 10 years, but this is not about me.
This is about the self-mutilating circus we have painted ourselves clowns in. About women who will prowl 30 stores in 6 malls to find the right cocktail dress, but haven't a clue where to find fulfillment or how wear joy, wandering through life shackled to a shopping bag, beneath those 2 pretty syllables.
About men wallowing on bar stools, drearily practicing attraction and everyone who will drift home tonight, crest-fallen because not enough strangers found you suitably fuckable.
This, this is about my own some-day daughter. When you approach me, already stung-stayed with insecurity, begging, “Mom, will I be pretty? Will I be pretty?” I will wipe that question from your mouth like cheap lipstick and answer, “No! The word pretty is unworthy of everything you will be, and no child of mine will be contained in five letters.
“You will be pretty intelligent, pretty creative, pretty amazing. But you, will never be merely 'pretty'.”

am fost azi la chioscul de ziare sa-mi iau un bilet de lotto. Pe un monitor mic era afisata afirmatia zilei: Wer gut allein sein kann, ist nie einsam adica cine poate sta fara nimeni si sa-i mearga bine, nu e niciodata singur
