Since when are you a positive person?.... Just envision yourself having a good day and everything will be rosey and beautiful..... BULLSHIT!

If your day sucks throw back a handful pills. Humans no longer have to suffer from any psychological problem or even an annoyance..... BETTER LIVING THROUGH DRUGS!

haha whatever i am totally an optimist! everyone i know jokes about me being "ms. motivation". especially when i'm on drugs. hahah everyone would get all irritated by a mission (to get more) and i am always the one like, "ok everyone CHOP CHOP! we can do it, let's go bla bla bla"


mind over matter, moral...mind over matter. it's the damn truth. only weakminded people have trouble with that concept.

Okay, I do believe that you can influance your mood, feeling, even physical condition via thought, however, there are some limitations. The theory of mind over matter extapolated to it's ultimate conclusion would state that you can cure spinabifida through positive thinking.... that is simply not true.

i dunno about spinabifida, but i've seen documented incidents where people got rid of their cancer through the power of the mind...no kemo or anything...

Or maybe the tumor just died. I doubt that a corolation between the thoughts of the patient and the remission or elimination of the cancer can be proven. That isn't to dismiss the benefits of positive thought, however, it is like chronic pain syndrom... it cannot be proven or disproven.

see it's that negative train of thought right there that gets you no where. c'mon moral...the glass is half full. the glass is half full.



actually when i was peeing the other night, i looked at my favorite perfume bottle on the bathroom counter and it was more than half way empty, but i realized at that moment that i am truely an optimist, because instead of thinking, "aww man it's almost empty, i gotta go buy another bottle" my thought process was like, "hmm, i'm still pretty good with that, i don't have to get any more yet"


Posted by UWM on Jun-07-2005 14:55:

oooh you thought of that while you were peeing?

that's hot.

Truth is I am an optomist, however, I am also a skeptic. Being an insurance adjuster my job is all about proof. If you cannot prove it then it does not exist, or at the very best it isn't material. Because mind over matter cannot be proven then it either doesn't exist or it is inmaterial/irrelevent/unimportant. I can't help but think this way, it's engrained into me.

your posts have been making a lot of sense to me lately. i am in a crappy mood too, but for a different reason. so i took a vit b supplement this morning and now i am going to go work really hard, and hopefully my mind will clear up.

kferns, if the girl trusts you, she'll get over it. and if not, you can always find a new girl. take everything as a learning experience.


Posted by Estella on Jun-07-2005 15:25:

Hey Kfergs. Maybe it is the weather? It's been very rainy here. I love that type of weather, but I've had a friend who's had seasonal depression disorder. (Always thought he was pulling my leg) If he didn't receive a certain amount of sunlight, he would always be gloomy.

Anyways, I always listen to some good oldies and dance. Here's a good one: Chuck Berry - You Never Can Tell. It's even better when your naked. Orrr... Just yesterday, I received a call from an ex-employee who I was pretty close with. Nothing brightens your day better than receiving a call from someone you've not heard from in a long time. You get to share your stories, laugh and reminisce. Go out w/ friends and create some chaos, steal some lawn gnomes.

Laugh, laugh, laugh. That's what gets me through, never fails. Good luck!!

I do some of my best thinking in the bathroom. But I only pee and it�s pink and smells like flowers. i do a lot of thinking in the shower too...the bathroom is my sanctuary.


Posted by UWM on Jun-07-2005 15:32:

I think everyone does their best thinking in the bathroom. I usually just end up reading Maxim though.

Sounds like the making of a perfume that will sell in millions

As for the glass half empty/full, I take a more logical approach:

If it is being filled up, and that stops halfway, then it is half full.

If someone has been drinking/pouring it out and it is halfway, then it is half empty.

If I do not know the current state (ie. walk into a room and the glass is there with no one around), logic dictates that it is most likley half empty as the chances of someone having been drinking it are greater than someone have been filling it up, unless its right by a bottle/the sink)

Can anyone tell I am on my lunch break?

your body can pretty much cope with any disease by itself, how efficiently it can handle those situations is upto things like seratonin levels and the general chemical activity in your mind

positive thinking (not of the kind where you dellude yourself) CAN cure you of various ailments

To quote the great Canadian former PM Jean Chretian "Where's da proof? I mean da proof is da proof an' if dere is da proof an' it is da good proof den it is proven." Unless you can cite studies that prove positive thinking cures disease then all you have is anectotal, non-coroborated, stories of unexplained recovery that may or may not be corollated to a positive state of mind.

i am basing my words on studies, im just not the kind that cba to dig them up.

i've seen some both on discovery and on several online sources

mmm, i'm in a great mood today! it's just one of those days when you wake up and everything falls into place perfectly. woke up at 6:40 and laid on the couch for an hour reading my book, then showered and got ready and my hair looks perfect today so i dressed nicely (denim capris, brown sandals, and a white button down), left a silly love note on a post-it on the bathroom mirror for my bf to see when he wakes up, stopped at Speedway for a coffee (some guy told me i had the most beautiful eyes, which was sweet but sort of creepy), and enjoyed my coffee and a cigarette on the drive to work while listening (and dancing in the drivers seat) to Armin Van Buuren - Serenity, and enjoying the warm sunny weather!

to the thread starter - just remember we all have our good days and our bad days. without the bad days, the good days wouldn't be as special. you'll get through it and everything will work out in the end. just be patient and don't worry!

I have had no exposure to these studies therefore I will not comment on their validity or conclusions. I will end my involvement in this thread by stateing that the power of positive thought to cure illness has yet to be proven to me and therefore I cannot allow myself the luxury of believing in said power. I will, however, accept that a poor attitude or negative thought can act as a barrier to recovery.

What about the new springing forth of all these religions or thought? Holistic healing, Scientology, alternative medicine, etc.
