The magic of feeling bad about feeling bad...Hi, R.!<br />The magic of feeling bad about feeling bad is that it makes us feel more than twice as bad! It's some sort of exponential thingy (can't do math analogies) that make us feel more like five times as bad! At least, that's how it works for me.<br /><br />I don't accept that it's forever "just who I am," exactly. It's how I'm feeling at the moment, for sure, but I believe it is not hardwired but rather learned behavior and as such, can gradually be unlearned. <br />That's the theory anyway!Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-56067359343872631612009-07-01T08:18:13.949-05:002009-07-01T08:18:13.949-05:00"...telling her I feel like a miserable creat..."...telling her I feel like a miserable creature in every way, but especially, I confessed, for feeling that way. (Those of you prone to double-dipping yourself will recognize this specious line of reasoning.)"<br /><br />Gorgeous. Why just feel bad when you can feel bad about feeling bad? Isn't that twice as good? Or, I suppose, twice as bad--in a good way? <br /><br />Been there. As a friend of my own was telling me recently, maybe that's just you, maybe that's just who you are--someone who feels bad sometimes. Someone who feels bad about feeling bad.<br /><br />Trundle on, little choo-choo! Oh, how cute is that.Rudyinparishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13527306418916412817noreply@blogger.com
