i think i get it.

so i watched this movie and it tells a secret in it. the secret has to do with me finding a boy and other good things that are happening to me. the movie also reminded me that i have so many great things in my life and when i think about them, it feels good. like when isaac smiles and when roxy wags her tail at me, when barb and i have a joke no one else understands and when my parents tell me they are proud of me. i tried it out today when i felt myself getting sad about something: i stopped and closed my eyes and thought about something that feels good. the sad thing is still around a little but not a lot. i'm leaving barb and aaron and isaac today and that makes me feel a little weird in my tummy. i think i get so comfy here i get scared to leave. i know because it happens to me whenever i am leaving them. having people who know you real good and love you no matter what is really safe feeling and i'm real lucky because i have people like that. now i remember that if i get scared i can just close my eyes and think about the good feelings and i can feel safe again. it's like a trick! good think i learned such a good trick...

That IS a good think!I'm proud of you for using such a simple but powerful tool to help yourself get through more difficult moments.Also, don't forget to Celebrate Impermanance!By the way, Isaac is hootin' and a-hollerin'. I think it's cause he misses Peanut.2 kudos for being brave and positive.
