		<description>Hi Michael, that is really insightful. I think you&#039;re right that just observing the bad feelings is the first step to becoming more in control of your emotional state.</description>

		<description>Yeah, it&#039;s the old pain body coming up I think. It&#039;s good to be able to recognize when it&#039;s happening.</description>

		<description>Another perspective to consider is soemthing I learned when I watched &quot;What the Bleep Do We Know?&quot; and it helped me immensely.  When one is chronically down and depressed, that becomes one&#039;s comfort zone and you&#039;ll tend to remain there, yes.  But also, emotions are associated with hormones and other chemical compounds produced by our bodies.

By extremely close and acute self-observation, I discovered that the bad feelings came first, just a nanosecond before my mind came up with an excuse to feel bad.  Once I came to the conclusion that I was dependent on these natural drugs, it was far easier to dismiss the bad feelings - it was like observing yourself doing idiotic things while drunk.  Once you step outside the behavior and observe, you can contol it quite easily.  This was a huge part of the beginning of my personal awakening.

		<description>I love that idea Anna, needing an excuse to feel bad. I like that. Its almost like a part of us wants to let out some pain so we look to a part of our story to do that.</description>

		<description>I guess we all have our &quot;pain&quot; from the past.  Mine&#039;s growing up in an alcoholic, abusive family that had a very limited mindset, especially around money.  I do get down and wish I was born into another family, one that had money and never wanted for anything.  I&#039;ve been feeling not-so-great lately and trying to &quot;shake&quot; the icky feelings.  I guess there are reasons for me being born into my family.  Thanks for sharing your story, it helps to know that I&#039;m not alone.</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for sharing your story.  Sometimes I feel the same way about things I don&#039;t like about my past, but you are so right there has to be a reason for them, I am sure of that.  Thanks for reminding me that I&#039;m not alone &amp; that we all have our struggles from time to time.</description>

		<description>&lt;/strong&gt;Thanks, Zora :)

&lt;strong&gt;Malian&lt;/strong&gt; - On the positive side, I&#039;m sure I did benefit from time away so I could gain more independence. I&#039;m not sure I was indoctrinated though, I&#039;d call it more a process of osmosis.

&lt;strong&gt;Angela&lt;/strong&gt; - Thanks for this, I will. You know what occurred to me last night when I posted this? The reason why I didn&#039;t get residency in the end was because of the bone disease I had when I was little, called &quot;Perthes Disease&quot;. I read a long time ago that it&#039;s called Perthes disease because there were many cases in Australia (Perth). Which is where I&#039;m going soon, instead of staying here in NZ to try to get residency. 

&lt;strong&gt;Michael&lt;/strong&gt; - Thanks!</description>

		<description>Pretty rough story, Anna.  Surely major enough to, as you say, have been planned as a learning experience.

You&#039;ve read Tolle...it is what it is and the emotions are just pointers, they&#039;re not you.  Hope you&#039;re feeling better.</description>
