Thursday, July 24th, 2014Julie A., M.A. Ross and Judy Corcoran: “When you understand that your feelings are triggered by what you think about an event and not by the event itself, you gain a measure of control.

A change in thoughts often radically alters your feelings.”

It is all these things that have made them what they are, and these are the things that you can’t come to know by hearsay, you can only know them if you have lived them.”
