There are more things likely to frighten us than there are to crush us. We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.
Seneca
Feedback mechanisms as anticipatory anxiety trigger symptoms which in turn, reinforce the phobia. Paradoxical intention consists of a reversal of attitude. Fear is replaced by a paradoxical wish to experience the anxiety fully, and the wind is taken out of the sails. ~Logotherapy by Victor Frankl
222! My first dorm room number. The name of a bottle of Codeine that’s sold OTC in Canada that we used to use for hangovers (!). The date of Anne Russell‘s son Benjamin‘s birth. Today’s date!
What! Me worry?
It’s a magic number for you. I’ve never had one. Suggestions?
Yes you worry. How high the price of gas before going completely electric? (scooter at least) And, how is the electric grid going to hold up after all of us see the light?
The cartoon at the bottom of 20-Exch shows how “Freedom From Worry” can be the greatest gift. What kindness!
