Short Sweet and To the Point
I decided to try and catch my stress with a net that I used to catch my tropical aquarium fish, but that didn’t work. So I tried a different strategy using a glass full of Gin but that didn’t work either. So I got creative and used an early afternoon nap to try and dim my thinking, but that inspired my imagination to dream about all the things I did wrong. Then I got creative and wrote a mental story about a Grasshopper who came into our garden to have fun with the flowers and got really stressed out when he saw our patio umbrella swaying in the wind. That’s when I realized that stress is like a mirror that reflects all the things that we fear.
