Yesterday, in a therapy group, people made lists of what’s bad for them and what’s good for them.
What would you put in your lists of what’s bad for you and what’s good for you?
Do you see anything that’s bad for you or good for you in my photos?
Here‘s a Good AND Bad Song from The Powerpuff Girls.
It would be bad for me to miss my 7:30 AM Physical Therapy appointment, so it’s good for me to end now with thanks to all who helped me create today’s post and — of course! — to YOU.
Yesterday, in a group therapy session, people talked about regret. I said, “Regret is really present in this room. Should we invite Regret to sit down?” People looked a little less regretful when they invited Regret to sit in a corner. They also asked Regret questions like “Why won’t you go away?” I answered in the voice of Regret: “I won’t go away because I think I help you. What would you do without me?” People said that as the session went on, Regret was still there but was getting smaller.
Near the end of the session, I went over to the chair where Regret was sitting, picked it up by the scruff of the neck, opened the door with my other hand, threw Regret into the hallway, and slammed the door. I asked people how it felt now that Regret was out of the room. “Wonderful,” was one reply.
Later that day, I went to physical therapy for my torn rotator cuff, and Regret visited me there. I got so discouraged about my lack of progress that I focused on my regret for slipping and falling on January 31. Then, I remembered the group, took Regret by the scruff of the neck and threw it out the door.
Here‘s the song I heard yesterday with the lyrics “Forget Regret.”
Yesterday, when I was doing it right with Physical Therapy for my torn rotator cuff, I right away noticed this ….
…. which was right on the top of this.
Do it right and prevent fractures, injuries, and other problems in your everyday activities.
Is that too much pressure, to be told to do it right? Is telling somebody to do it right the right way to promote acceptance and peace, especially if different people have different opinions about what’s right and how to do it right?
My opinion is that these high school students were doing it right yesterday when they were taking it to the streets, chanting “Gun Control!” and “NRA is not okay!”
The New England weather wasn’t doing winter right yesterday with record high temperatures, but that was all right with me.
Did I do it right with these other photographs?
Somebody did not do it right in that last photo.
After I do something, I wonder, “Did I do it right?” I do it right by telling myself I did it well enough and then think about how I could do it better the next time.
