I really appreciate your understanding. Shutting off the "why" monster is a good way but tough to do. Need to remember the Serenity Prayer. Best, Lyle Thanks Alex!

Brown, PMP IPMA-C Thu, 15 Jan 2009 23:43:27 +0000 http://www.beyond-the-pain.com/?p=12#comment-9 One of the great things about the human mind is that we keep seeking explanations for everything. Why did that happen? Why me? It helps us learn and thrive in odd situations. Unfortunately, it can drive us crazy when there is something we cannot control, predict, or foresee. Why now? Why me? Was it what I ate? Was it the weather? Sometimes our explanation-seeking can become a problem of its own. Best wishes. I am hoping for a great tomorrow for you, and for a way to live with the pain. Viktor Frankl and the story of Job have always been inspirations to me, when I am faced with a suffering that I cannot escape. --Alex One of the great things about the human mind is that we keep seeking explanations for everything.
