@brightwings Others may be feeling the same. I know I am feeling extremely confused. We are all wired differently. Many are not used to being trapped in bodies that can no longer perform. I tell myself I am still ambulatory and can still drive some. I have done many things in my life. I think of young people who are injured in accidents being trapped in young bodies that can no longer perform. We have much to be grateful for-my input. Can understand how you are feeling punished. Old messages are hard-wired.
You sound plenty busy even though not as busy as you would like to be. Time to rest and collect our thoughts and not go running willie-nillie. It can be challenging.

@parus- I think that I have addressed this one before. But thinking that we are being punished for something so far out of our control doesn't make sense, does it? Why do we assume that some force is punishing us? We need to focus on how we can make learn from things that have happened. Did we have a role in mistakes that make us feel punished? It's time for all of us to stop this, and retrain our brains!
