Hi Simone, Elham, Pln, Charles, Claire and all!!! I read all of the replies and I believe I have many similarities with you.
Firstly I try hard not to be upset, but many times it's not possible. When that happens, I try to listen to a good song and sometimes talking about what worries me helps. Traveling must be something really good to overcome tough times. Pln, nice quotation about the 'rose garden'. I can't agree with you more. After a rainy day, you get up stronger. Claire, I believe cooking is not suitable for me. LOL. Just kidding!! Now, take a walk is a good treat to me too. What you said is a well defined female behaviour when a woman gets upset. Do you think women suffer more than men? Do women show more their feelings when they are having a togh time? Have a nice weekend for you all !!!
