愛、生活、人生系列

不要拿別人的過錯，來懲罰自己在我的為人處事與生活中，我總是把每個人與每件事，都很認真地去處理與看待，唯恐怠慢了別人，或沒把事情做好。但，不是每個人都把我當一回事，或想努力去做事。於是，我常常會認知失調，自己難過與生氣···，也許我沒必要那麼serious吧！掌控情緒這件事，說來簡單，但是要做到卻很難，那是要經過很多歷練，才能改變觀念，繼而改變態度的。人為什麼會焦慮、有情緒呢？因為我們太重視別人與事情，太把別人與事情當一回事了，對很多人事物太認真，覺得別人怎麼沒有像我一樣，那麼看重情誼，那麼積極做事呢？其實，他是他，我是我，他的思維模式，本來就跟我不同，我何必被自己的情緒牽著走呢？碰到狀況時，也許我要先想想，我有沒有不對的地方，如果有，就要及時改進，如果沒有，請不要拿別人的過錯，來懲罰自己。重點是，千萬不要動怒，不要拿別人的過錯，來懲罰自己，傷害自己，那是多麼得不償失啊！人難免都有生氣的時候，心理學家說：「生氣是一種很好的情緒發洩方式。」每一個生氣的原因，都不相同，例如：沒睡飽、掉東西、被誤會、別人得罪我、考試考不好···等等。生氣時所做出的事情，也不一樣，有人會亂摔東西，有人會嚎啕大哭，有人會到處訴苦，也有人會去跑步、打球等發洩情緒，這些都是很好的發洩方式。但是，我們千萬不要用生氣，來處理事情，生氣雖然是一種很好的發洩情緒方式，但是，生氣會讓人一整天不開心，而且，生氣也會把自己氣出病來。「不要拿別人的過錯，來懲罰自己。」不要跟自己過意不去，否則，自己傷心傷身，別人還莫名其妙、若無其事呢！其實，要做好情緒管理，就是要將複雜的事情簡單化。我們常常會遇到很多棘手的事情，會焦慮、會不安，但那都不能解決問題。我們遇到不懂的事，就要去看書、翻書，請教別人，多跟人群接觸，改變對事情的看法···等等，久而久之，我們就會有定性，較不至於有劇烈的情緒起伏，也較不會隨對方的情緒起舞，那是很好的情緒管理之道。人生在世，我們無法控制別人的行為，與事情的發生，但是，我們可以控制自己的情緒。當我們選擇放下憤怒時，實際上是給自己一份自由，那是一種無價的解脫，智慧的體現。當我們遇到讓自己不舒服的人事物時，就是一種不對勁的感覺，我們感受到了不舒服的感覺，真的不需要反應過度或情緒化，好好地想想，處理並面對別人帶給自己的不對勁感，感到「那個行為很沒禮貌」，用客觀的角度去思考，冷靜下來，把對方失禮的行為當作笑話，笑笑就算了，讓自己內心平靜地過日子，才是王道。我們要守護自己，不要被劣質的人際互動擺佈，帶著信念，捍衛自我認同與自尊。無論別人如何，事情多麼糟，我們都要不動氣地用簡短、堅定的口吻，點出錯誤之處，表達自己的意見，修正言行舉止，下次再做得更圓滿、更好。Powered by Firstory Hosting

Doing Things without PayWhat are the truly priceless aspects of life that money can’t buy? Obviously, money cannot buy knowledge, passion and friendships. These most valuable aspects of life, i.e., knowledge, passion and friendships, indeed, cannot be purchased. My writings and podcasts every week are cultivated through my life experiences and personal dedication. They are not paid by money. Yes. money can purchase educational materials, but knowledge that comes from my personal efforts and experiences cannot be bought. I will continue my writings and podcasts without pay because knowledge is more important than money. Next, true passion requires personal investment and time for genuine growth. Engaging in activities driven by passion is really more fulfilling than monetary gain. Recently, my volunteering to form the “English Youth Leadership Program” at Chung-cheng Industrial High School in Kaohsiung City without pay is my passion. While money provides opportunities to explore learning, it doesn’t create the intrinsic motivation needed for passion. In other words, passion does bring me joy and fulfillment that I might say it cannot be replaced by money. Lastly, I regard that genuine friendships stand out (突顯) as priceless treasures in the world. Authentic friendships, built on trust and mutual respect, offer a depth of connection that, for me, money simply cannot buy. It’s truly meaningful that I have “in-person English tutoring for free” with Zaki Wang. I value Zaki’s true friendship more than money provided. I would like to spend quality time with him, instead of favoring the payment of private tutoring, because Zaki is my good friend. All in all, it, absolutely, cannot be overemphasized that money, undoubtedly, can’t buy knowledge, passion and friendships.First of all, I am not a “professional writer.” I don’t write for books or magazines. My very close relatives and friends that I have known for many years have often questioned why I invest my time in writing the articles since I don’t get paid for them. Well, I would like to say that writing helps me think of the philosophy of life. Every week, when I recalled the whole week schedules, my writing on Friday lets me learn the lessons, knowledge and wisdom of my daily routine. Secondly, I think that I can write to touch people. I write to form a connection with those who take time out from their lives to read what I have written. For these, perhaps unknown, people to take additional time to read my writings, I consider that I really give them my precious gifts. Besides, in terms of my own benefits, through the writings, I can be free to express my feelings that bring me pleasure. I enjoy writing my thoughts freely and lightheartedly. In fact, I know that the power of the spoken words with sincerity and passion can never be discounted. But, unfortunately, I am not an eloquent person. My writing is better than my speaking. As much as I love people and love to talk to people, I guess that through my writings, I could communicate with people more effectively. Actually, when I am inspired by an event that I read, hear, see or it has happened to me, I feel compelled to put it into words to share it with others. One of the strengths I think to be a “writer” is that I can present the events and my feelings to people. I don’t really care to pay my writings. Actually, the main reason I write without getting paid is that writings bring me joy while making me feel good even for a few hard moments.Maybe, not every action requires a paycheck. For example, hobbies, like singing and dancing, are just a few of many things that people participate in to express themselves, to share the cultures, and to just have fun without any pay. This is the exact reason why I started the podcast. In my podcasts, there are 52 episodes throughout 12 months, within a year. I started my podcasts without any intention of monetizing it. I didn’t even know if anyone would listen. And most of those who do listen are my friends and family. In the very first beginning, I just wanted to have fun and shared my podcasts with people who might care to listen. Year after year, I think that I am the person who gets the most advantages. My podcasts have taught me the importance of doing research, of being humble to be corrected when I am wrong, and of asking questions to solve the problems. It is possible to learn these skills elsewhere, but I have been afforded a great opportunity in gaining knowledge through the trials and applications of running the podcast.In addition, volunteering brings the noblest aspirations of human kind, i.e., the pursuit of peace, freedom, opportunity, safety, and justice for the world. In effect, a lot of people on earth offer their time, talents, and energy to others and their communities through different actions without financial rewards. Nowadays, with busy schedules, it might be hard for many people to find time to volunteer. However, there are, certainly, a lot of profits of volunteering. I am lucky to have such a volunteering chance to form the “English Youth Leadership Program” at Chung-cheng Industrial High School in Kaohsiung City. I have my senior Toastmasters member, Simone Nash, to help me create the agendas and sessions in the program. It is the free program for students to practice their spoken English at school. I have my passion, and I am, surely, willing to spend time and energy to discuss the activities with students and teachers without any pay. Nevertheless, it is worthy of my support to assist students in learning English.Last but not least, I also offer in-person English tutoring for free. In-person tutoring means a tutor sits down face-to-face with a student. This could be done in any environment that facilitates learning, such as in the school’s classroom, at the tutor’s or student’s home, or in the local library. One of the most important benefits of face-to-face learning is the opportunity to establish a personal connection between students and tutors. I remembered that one of the Toastmasters members, Zaki Wang, asked me to teach him English in private last year. I quickly promised to help him for free without doubt. In-person English tutoring for free gives me a chance to socially interact with Zaki. Actually, I am glad to make friends with Zaki, and I am happy to help him find the right ways for English learning. Truly, I am the one who gets the best advantages. In Zaki’s case, I win the true friendship that money cannot buy. And I also learn the experiences to guide Zaki according to his unique strengths and areas for improvement.In conclusion, money might be an essential tool for us to access necessities, such as shelter, food, clothing, transportation, etc. But, unquestionably, money cannot purchase knowledge, passion and friendships. My writings and podcasts provide me good knowledge that is priceless. I appreciate and cherish such valuable experiences very much. Again, the motivation of volunteering is our passion, not money. My recent volunteering experience is more worthwhile than money. At last, authentic friendships cannot be bought, but have to be built through time and effort. In our whole lives, we should cultivate our knowledge, passion and friendships, and, of course, these things cannot be bought by money.Powered by Firstory Hosting

Following My Own PaceAfter reading some articles, I am convinced that I don’t need to worry about how “fast” I am trying to go because life isn’t a race. Life is not a competition. And I don’t have to run faster than others. Regarding success, it seems that we have to achieve something within a certain timeline, such as going to university/college and finishing it at aged 22, getting married in our 30s, buying a house in our 40s, and progressing throughout the career consistently, etc. But, how about if I don’t follow the normal timeline? Can I just simply follow my own pace in my life? Is it OK that I can take my time to do my own things? If I do not meet these normal standards, am I “behind” or a “failure” somehow? Anyway, life isn’t a race. I can understand the pressure and the feelings associated with the timeline. So many people follow the normal rules in the world. It is also natural to compare ourselves to others. We’re social beings, after all. We see people starting new jobs, having bought property, graduations, engagements, marriages, holidays, and childbirths. Then, they come the second child, a promotion, the next holiday, the child becoming the star player of his local football team, the next promotion, grandchildren, a second home, a successful second career, and so on. But, in fact, we still can know that people make changes all the time. Why not we could just make things happen at our own paces?We all experience setbacks, right?! Actually, we all experience setbacks from time to time. It is really unfair to say that we have failed because we have experienced something that we did not like or anticipate. It’s better that we know what we want, and work towards it. But who knows? Some people are lucky enough to know what they want to do from a young age. Others figure it out later. Others currently do not know what they want to do surely. Perhaps, we just cannot know what is going on behind the scenes. It is, indeed, easy to look at people successfully, particularly, those who are the same age of ours. I can even realize that good things always take time. It’s never too late to do things. Everyone is different. Things happen differently for different people. Therefore, it’s actually no need to compare my life to others. I should work at my own pace and follow my own ways. Notwithstanding, nowadays, things are up in the air (事情懸而不決). As a matter of fact, finding a secure job and reaching financial stability have all become difficult for many people. People blame themselves for their lack of “success.” Failure is, in effect, an integral part of our lives, right now, and do lead to setbacks. Failure is uncomfortable. And it hurts. It hurts a lot. In this case, I think, for me, I might try something to change, instead of focusing on failure.When some people fail, they might be quick to brand themselves as a “failure.” Nevertheless, failure is temporary. It could be a feeling and it can be changed. When we fail or experience setbacks for something, the experiences can be quite unpleasant. Failure and setbacks often feel painful, but these feelings are temporary. It’s, possibly, OK to feel down from it, but it will pass. The pain will fade away, and it certainly will be replaced with resolve and hope if we are optimistic enough. Later, undoubtedly, it will be learning experiences to us. We learn lessons from our setbacks and failure for sure. Hereafter, we realize that we truly have our own paces to do things in our lives. Yes. It’s powerful to follow my own pace. We ought to acknowledge that certain things are beyond our control. Within our race, we have already played the cards in the best possible ways. We, then, try to practice self-acceptance, self-improvement, self-esteem and self-reliance. Learning not to compare ourselves to others requires time and practice. There is quite about simply saying “I am enough,” and appreciating the journey of our endeavors. Recently, I have been playing the piano by myself without the teacher. I should have followed the notes to play the song accordingly, but it’s not easy for me to finish the whole piano music without the teacher’s instructions. So I, personally, change the musical notes to fit in the styles that I am familiar with. It sounds great and wonderful for me to enjoy the music because I can play easily and smoothly. Wow! I even don’t know that I can do such a silly thing to amuse myself. How happy I am to have such a change! Well, maybe I am wrong not to listen to the teacher’s guidance. Yet, I am glad and I enjoy learning this way sometimes. It’s so pleased to follow my own pace. Afterwards, I got the lesson from the above-mentioned action. In the world, there are certain ways that we can improve our living standards to make happiness easier to achieve. Success isn’t directly correlated with effort, though. Life isn’t a race. I know that I can be happy wherever I am, and eventually find the right way forward for me whatever that may be. I only need to make small adjustments here and there to follow my own pace. Thereupon, I don’t worry about failure. It is just a matter of time until I succeedObviously, people make progress at different rates. The main point is that we should never give up trying things. The master has failed more times than the beginner has ever tried. The master knows of all eventualities, and plans accordingly for them. Therefore, we, definitely, have to try. We have to go through life knowing that we tried our best. Learning never ends. Once we follow our own paces to learn things, we get sense of achievement by ourselves. We are, thus, the big winners in our whole lives. The difference between those who find happiness and those who don’t is perseverance. We all face challenges and hardships. But the key to happiness is never to give up, no matter what we face. We all become better at things by trying. The most important thing is that we have to be daring to follow our own paces, and keep on going no matter how long it takes or how far it is.Powered by Firstory Hosting

生活與生命的目的是進步2025年4月3日星期四，我們全家北上去台北「中正紀念堂」遊覽，在蔣公銅像前拍照留念，又欣賞了閱兵交接典禮，實為壯觀。我在蔣公銅像旁邊，看了兩排字：「生活的目的，在增進人類全體之生活；生命的意義，在創造宇宙繼起之生命。」感觸良多。以前小時候，在教科書上，不斷背誦，朗朗上口。如今，已年過60，再細細品味，真是百感交集。短短30個字，道出了生活與生命的意義。生活，不單只是一個人在生活著，而是結合了一個個的單獨個體，形成「人類群體」的家庭與社會，大家都為了生活而打拚，希望努力進步，過幸福的生活。而我們的生命，亦復如是。除了繁衍後代外，還要延續人類生命的正向精神，代代相傳，永不止息。生活與生命，就像一場旅程，而進步就是我們不斷前行的動力和目標。在這段旅途中，我們面對著種種挑戰和困難，但只要我們始終保持前進的信念，就能超越自己的極限，達到更高的境界，替人類創造美好的生活，為生命開創一個個的奇蹟。原來，在蔣公銅像旁的兩排字，道盡了人類歷史與社會的進步。是的，進步是人類生活與生命中，最不可或缺的一環。首先，在個人的成長過程中，進步是至關重要的。每個人都有自己的夢想和目標，但要實現這些夢想，就必須不斷地努力和進步。只有在不斷地學習和成長中，我們才能夠提升自己的能力，更好地應對未來的挑戰。然而，要始終保持前進，並不容易，因為，人生充滿了各種誘惑和困難。有時候，我們可能會遇到挫折，就覺得自己無法再前進了。進步的秘訣，就在於我們始終要保持前進的信念。無論遇到什麼困難和挑戰，我們都不能放棄，要堅持不懈地努力奮鬥，直到最後一刻。在進步的過程中，我們是需要不斷地反思和學習的。進步的道路並不平坦，我們要有勇氣，勇敢地面對挑戰，並不斷地努力向前，才能提升自己。再者，進步的秘訣，是要盡力去解決問題，克服難關，追求物質生活的進步，造福人群的。隨著社會的發展，我們要更新自己的知識和技能，以應對不斷變化的環境和挑戰。我們要不斷地精進與學習，才能提升自己的競爭力。最後，進步的秘訣，在於我們的心態和態度。當我們擁有一顆開放、積極的心態時，我們就能夠更好地接受挑戰，並從中獲得成長和收獲。同時，我們也需要擁有一顆感恩的心，感恩身邊的一切人事物，並將這份感恩，化為不斷努力和進步的動力。在態度方面，我們要謙卑和順，有進步，不要志得意滿，要更積極努力。總的來說，進步的秘訣，是始終保持前進的信念，不斷超越自己的極限，並不斷學習和成長。當我們能夠堅持這樣的信念和態度時，我們就能夠提升自己，實現更大的物質成就，開創更進步的社會、國家，讓世界更便利、更富有、更舒適。接著，我們生命的目的，也是在追求進步，但不只是物質的進步，更是精神的進步。人從哭聲中來到這個世界，最終，也會從哭聲中，離開這個世界；人從初來乍到，需要別人照顧，到最後，亦不得不被人照顧。我們終其一生，只不過是這世界上，匆匆的過客，我們看似是在追尋自己的節奏，自己的生活，與自己的幸福，但實際上，大部分的人，一輩子碌碌無為，也沒做出什麼轟動世界的大事。那麼，生命到底有什麼意義呢？在遠古時期，力量、火把，就是人們獲取生命的方式。有力量，就能用拳頭解決一切問題，有火把，就能掌控事情的發展；在命懸一線的戰火時期，單是活著，就是一種幸福，從戰場上活著回來，無論是受傷，還是失去四肢，只要意志清醒，平安回家，就已經是當時人們遙不可及的幸福了。其實，真正的生命，是心靈的進步，是從心底出發，不受他人影響，不限制於世俗的眼光，不被人們的言語控制，而能跟隨自己的內心，做自己該做的事，喜歡做的事，及做對社會有貢獻的事。生命的目的，即是不斷地追求心靈的成長與進步，跟隨內心，珍惜當下的每一個瞬間，多留意身邊的人事物，我們精神的富足，是遠遠超過物質的堆積的。當我們真正要離開時，那些珠寶首飾，都是身外物，我們實實在在能帶走的，就只有在世上的精神和信仰，這是難以磨滅的靈魂。生命就是一個不斷學習的歷程，學習的同時，也在累積自我價值、提升心靈。我們每個人都擁有獨特的優點與能力，我們要善於運用積累的知識，培養自己的能力。之後，在職場上，無論遇到什麼困難，皆能臨危不亂，處變不驚。那麼，我們的生命，就一直都有進步，內心就會更堅定，更充滿信心。蔣公的至理名言，一點都沒錯，歷久彌新，生活的目的，是要追求物質的進步，生命的目的，是要追求精神的進步。我們在追求物質生活進步的同時，更要注重精神生命的進步。也就是說，生活要進步，生命更要進步。在當今的社會中，我們都很努力地來求得物質條件的富足，當我們有充足的經濟資源時，我們就有更好的醫療服務，促進健康，延長壽命。再來，我們需要有良好、進步的教育背景，才能提高我們的知識水準，廣闊職業生涯。此外，我們還要有足夠的時間，參與社交活動，譬如文化活動及旅遊等，來增強人際關係，豐富生活經歷。最後，我們更要有高層次的生活品質，例如藝術、音樂、美術和休閒活動等，來充實我們的心靈。也就是說，我們在追求物質富足的同時，更應該要重視心靈精神的提升與進步。真正的富足，是心靈與物質的平衡的。金錢確實可以提供幸福感，特別是在滿足基本需求的情況下。沒有金錢，生活將面臨許多現實的困難，諸如食物、住處、醫療等，都可能是一種奢望。然而，金錢並非幸福的唯一來源。即使擁有充足的金錢，仍有不少富人，深陷憂鬱症或精神空虛的。可以這麼說，金錢是一種工具，讓我們擁有更多的選擇，但它並不是唯一的目標。真正的幸福，應該來自於內心的富足與生活的滿足，這就是蔣公所提出的：物質生活的進步，與精神生命的進步。我們要記取蔣公的教誨，永遠學習，永遠進步，在生活與生命上，爭爭日上，生生不息。Powered by Firstory Hosting

Feeling Safe or Trying the Potential ChallengesFeeling safe is a fundamental human need, vital for both mental and physical health. Safety provides a sense of security and freedom from fear or anxiety, enabling individuals to thrive and function optimally. It influences how we navigate the world, form connections, and pursue our goals. The significance of feeling safe cannot be overstated. This essential aspect of the human experience does shape our daily interactions and activities. That is, when we feel safe, we find it easier to relax, do all the things that comfort us, and focus on our relationships and the work or study we need to do. By contrast, trying the potential challenges is a force that it pushes us to get out of our comfort zones. We don’t like it, of course, unless we are compelled to do it. We all are humans and we expect too much from our life. Sometimes, we feel disappointed when our expectations are not met. Life is a complicated path full of challenges, hardships, and barriers that might be difficult to overcome. While some people appear to glide around life with comfort, others are continually fighting to overcome one obstacle after another. One of the main reasons why life might be challenging is its unpredictability. Life is packed with a surprise both good and terrible, so it can be difficult to predict what will happen next. This uncertainty can lead us to anxiety and tension. The desire to succeed is another reason that life can be challenging. We are taught from a young age that in order to live a happy and meaningful life, we must work hard, obtain high grades, and succeed. This pressure to succeed can be overpowering, especially when we fail to reach our own or others’ expectations. Financial difficulties make life difficult, too. Money issues can result in tension, anxiety, and even despair. Financial difficulties really constrain our alternatives and chances, making it tough to pursue our objectives and goals. Next,relationships are also a cause of stress in our life. Navigating the complexity of human connections, whether in love relationships, friendships, or family interactions, may all be difficult. Tension and stress could be caused by miscommunication, misunderstandings, and upset feelings. Moreover, life still can be made more challenging by health issues. Chronic illnesses, accidents, and disabilities would reduce our physical ability and make it more difficult to accomplish the things we enjoy. Depression and anxiety are two mental health conditions that let us make things hard to get along and enjoy life. Finally, in our society, discrimination, such as homophobia, sexism, racism, and other kinds of prejudice, create hurdles and limit possibilities for particular groups of individuals. In sum, life is challenging for a variety of reasons. Life’s unpredictability, pressure to perform, financial difficulties, marital challenges, health concerns, and social problems all make life difficult.In terms of feeling safe, home is where we can spend a large amount of time to feel secure and safe there. At home, we don’t have to be perfect and worthy to gain love and care. Our family members always accept us and support us no matter how many times we make mistakes or we are imperfections. At home, we are easy, cozy and comfortable. We take care of our physical and mental health at home. We prioritize our sufficient sleep, a balanced diet, regular exercise, and we spend time with our family members who genuinely love us so much. These actions establish a stable foundation for us that reinforces both our emotional and physical well-being. Except for that, we still can choose to go outside. A strong sense of community is important for building feelings of safety and belonging. We can join groups that align with our values or interests, such as hobby clubs, support groups, or volunteer organizations. We, then, build relationships by engaging in open, honest activities with others. When we are surrounded by people who we really trust and our supportive friends, we are strongly feeling safe. Everyone deserves to experience the peace and empowerment that come from feeling safe. It’s not just a basic human necessity; it’s the right. Feeling safe is a way of life that allows us to thrive, to achieve our goals, and to live with confidence and purpose.However, not every day is perfect. When we are forced to go down the unknown path, the less trodden path, what would we do? Definitely, it will be challenging and it will be difficult. Can we accept the challenges and learn a whole lot of new things? I would like to say that, perhaps, taking the path less travelled might be exhilarating, exciting and quite an adventure, but there is a cost to be paid. People only talk about obstacles when they are threatened by the new path. Once they realize that it is not the comfortable place, they could easily give up. As we have learned that fear and the unknown will make people scared, the new path will, absolutely, let us work so hard and break us down. Nevertheless, it is an irresistible need for us not to follow the same rules that everyone else is. That is to say, if we want to get ahead in the new path, we have to find ways to stand out from others. Williams James, the founding father of psychology, said, “Most people live in a restricted circle of their full potential.” Whether we use 5% of our brains or 50%, there’s no arguing that most of us never get close to what we’re actually capable of achieving. Likewise, experiences have taught us that, sometimes, the situations which challenge us the most have the hidden gifts to give us the reservoirs of strength and courage. In other words, trying the potential challenges lets us live our lives more deeply and bravely.Therefore, we need to trust in ourselves that our capacity for life is larger than what we’ve estimated to be. While we may have been in situations where we’ve felt that we lack the resources to meet our challenges, what we really lack is the self-trust to look within our inner resources. As Victor Frankl wrote, “When we are no longer able to change our situations, we are challenged to change ourselves.” It’s impossible to predict, and to much less fully plan for our lives. Nevertheless, whatever it happens, we always get to choose one way to go. Trusting that potential within us will always transcend and solve the problems. After all, when we trust ourselves to handle anything, it liberates us for everything. By the way, in order to prepare ourselves to take on the challenges of life and to help others face their challenges, firstly, we ought to take care of our physical needs, such as adequate sleep, good nutrition, and physical activity. Then, caring for our emotional needs is also necessary. Regular self-care, enjoying hobbies or activities, taking regular self-compassion breaks, and taking time to be kind toward ourselves are, indeed, essential to us. When we finally overcome the difficulties during those challenging times, we will find out that how much we have grown up from these experiences. We, then, gain the increased awareness, the new perspectives, a better appreciation for life, and a greater sense of purpose. Challenges in life are inevitable. Notwithstanding, as we seek to understand and apply healthy ways of coping, such as eliminating overthinking, working from our strengths, taking time for self-care, and finding meanings in our experiences, we will be more prepared to face these potential challenges with peace and confidence for sure.Powered by Firstory Hosting
