Relieving One's Self of Stress

There are so many things we like to share And bring love in to take away care The best way to relieve stress Is to remember the good times and happiness We hear the words of grief and trouble And we know that we can halve it and not double We have been given the gift to see the funny side With laughter and smiles so far and wide Sharing our stories and kind words from the start And the pleasure we bring will melt every heart And help to heal loneliness, fear and pain Then as we leave and please come again

Muhammed Hi, thank you so much, just these lovely comments relieve me of my stress, mind you I don't get stressed very often and if I do I always find something to do and that relieves it, I am quite a relaxed person, take care......Vera

Your outlook on life is to be admired, Vera. At times we stress ourselves with needless worries, building mountains out of molehills. Things are not always as bad as they seem! ~ Just read Cherl's note to you after her op. I still find it hard to believe that she's not with us anymore! She had so many plans! She was a lovely, kind and dear friend. // Best regards...paul

Thank you so much Paul, I do stress sometimes but I try not to but as you said we all stress at times, in this day and age is it any wonder with all the trouble that is going on in the world. Yes I also miss Cheryl, I was so sure she would recover but it wasn't meant to be, her daughter keeps in touch with me now so I haven't only lost Cheryl but I gained her daughter, lovely family, Take care my friend.......Vera
