Kind words as I dont always feel so 'together' and certainly not confident all the time - have just turned a corner recently - I think I have got to where RCR, Stayed and HB said we would get too
the knowling we will be ok with the new H or without him - what I do know is I wont be able to live ever with the man he is now? So its not in my hands its in the hands of  Fate, What is meant to be will be ......... but thanks you and I think you're coping as well as its a tough world your MLC is in ?

Love and ((((Hugs))) B xxxxx

I realise that we all have our public faces, the side we want to show, even to ourselves. Sometimes having a brave, optimistic face can hide things we need to deal with from people who can help.

But in general, there is some truth in the "fake it till you make it" idea. If we act happy and confident, we eventually become it. Dr Oz even talked about that today. I've also seen versions of that in other psychology books (with more complex explanations behind it), as well as examples on this forum.

I've even got a friend, a psychologist actually (but not a good face-reader), who thinks I'm always positive and upbeat (I always joke with her) and had no idea, until I told her, that I'd been having a hard time. But actually, every time I talk to her we make each other laugh so much that I'd rather be doing that than focussing on my misery.

So, Bewildered, you may not be always happy, and I know you've been through such a hard time, but the positive energy you show breeds more positive energy in people around you.

Hi everyone,
I've been talking to FollowingBliss and we've agreed that we will meet up for lunch in Leeds on Friday 18th March
FB suggested that we open it out so if any of the UK contingent want to join us that would be brilliant.

Or if you're really adventurous fly over.

 If anyone wants to return the following day there are loads of places to stay in Leeds. It's also got really good shopping etc.

If you want to pm me with your contact details etc, I'll book a table the end of the week when i've got an idea of numbers.

This will be the nearest I'll get to Luxembourg!!!

Edited to change topic icon...wish I  could join you.

If there were a direct (cheap) flight to Leeds after my lessons in the morning, I would... but there isn't!!!

Have fun!

hello!!
I would love to hook up with anyone in the UK - my issue is that I am currently having to work fulltime. I met a few people over in warrington about a month ago and that was brilliant.

I am out the evning of the 18th so can't even suggest hopping voer for after work drinks!

If you fancy a little get together I live in East Yorkshire and would be happy to host a get together/sleep over at mine. I have my kids alternate weekends and the first weekend I have free is the weekend of the 25th March.

Let me know.......

I am free on 25th March. Can't make 18th either which is a shame. Uni visiting again! Bit of a hobby of mine I think 

Would be great to hook up again.

Do I have to learn to speak foreign language? The Yorkshire dialect is hard enough lol 

Do they have a national costume in Luxembourg? Don't think I could wear leather shorts. Up for Viking helmet though
