                                                                refuge  for  our  minds  wherein  we

                                                                Whether we like it or not, we have

                                                                to accept and acknowledge our state

                                                                emotions
               Racing         the    clock,     meeting
                                                                Process it- We need to realize that it
               deadlines,  paying  bills,  managing             is okay to feel things in ways no one

               time… The list is endless!                       else does. There are times when we

               This  rat  race  only  gets  tougher  and        shun  away  from  our  feelings

               there seems to be no end to it. The              because  we  are  too  critical  of  it.  I

               that breeds inside of us, constituting           without  judgment  and  without
               our  thoughts,  feelings,  and  mind.  I         labeling  it  as  "good"  or  "bad",
