Chapter 11

Hi there, hope you are ok. Weather is a bit dour again. My cousins operation went ok. I went to see him yesterday. I am hopeful of the future now. I have lost a few loved ones over the years. With my faith though I hope to see them again. I value my friends and family and take every oppurtunity to keep in touch. I am lucky that I have got such good people in my life. Life is not always easy, your friends and family help you get through the bad times. Sometimes you are all alone though and you have to get through rough patches. You have to have an inner strength and resilience to get better. You have to try your best. I find people with mental health issues try their best. They want to be well. Take care.

Hello Jack-
You are right, all we can do is try our best. Friends and Family are so important in giving us support and encouragement through the tough times.
When we have times that we do it alone, it is true we must find inner-strength to challenge a negative situation.
The more we give ourselves permission to embrace the positive, the better we become.
That is why I find Mind Bloggling so vital. The positive interaction, the positive affirmations we give each other help reduce the anxiety. We have empowerment.
Look after yourself Jack. I look forward to Chapter 12. Kind regards Klahanie.

I've discovered, over the past yearm that family is often there and try to be supportive and encouraging - it's just your friends you have to choose both wisely and with caution.

I've been really fortunate that both my family and my friends are there for me when times get tough. Hope I can ALWAYS make sure I do the same for them.
