Awesome, thanks guys...
I feel I should add one thing...
The last few years I have smoke a lot of weed with my friends, and am aware that this can have varying effects on different people, especially when it comes to short-term memory. I feel that smoking wed has allowed me to see the world in a different light and is one of the reasons why I was open-minded enough to teach in China in the first place. I haven't smoked once since I've been here (6 months), and haven't desired to. I would love to get to the bottom of the problem at some point...
I will use the techniques provided above, as they seem fairly logical and as long as I blieve in and want change, it can happen.
By the way, Michael, I plan to attend a 10-day vipassana mediation getaway in Hong Kong on the 29th of this month, and I do teach young children, so I am around them all the time and it does help somewhat when I'm with them... I think we're on the same wavelength here...
Thanks again, Mike and Alex...
Bye for now...
