Thank you everyone for all of your support and the ongoing discussion - it really does help. I feel the energy and encouragement in your words and have learned much from the posts. gallen, I think that "mindfulness" really is the key for me right now. You are right, I have been letting the mind chatter pull me back into the same cycle, the same thought patterns. No wonder my progress has been limited - my thinking has been limiting. Thank you for the indepth explanation because I now have a much better understanding of what you mean by "mindfulness". I have much to "work" on - inner smile, slow things down, bouncing, mindfulness . . . this is good for me . . . opportunites to move forward. . .
Thank you so much for your help.
Much Love
