When Times Are Difficult
When times are difficult we tend to seek support from others around us. If they don’t give us the support we expect we get disappointed and sigh off as being UN-supportive.
Challenge your expectations. Does the person have the capacity to give you the support you need at this time? Is it reasonable to expect constant, full support? Can you redirect your support needs elsewhere?Is this an opportunity for you to become more self sufficient and self reliant?
When you become more self sufficient and self reliant , you may just find others around you offering more support.

Journey Through Oblivion – Chris Anselm Mattessich
“In the world of Darkness, to Loose is to Find, and to Find is to Loose. To Remember that Pure Light is found in the Depths of Shadow, and that with out Darkness There Is No Light. For Within this World there must Always Be a Balance. To Find Yourself is to Loose Sumtin Dear To You..and to Find what is Dear to you, it’s easy To Loose Yourself. Always Keep the Light within your Heart Close..And the Darkness that Cradles it Even Closer..The Further u walk into the Realm of Shadow..The Brighter the Light in Your Heart Shines to Show You The Way”

Intertwined Thru Darkness -Chris Anselm Mattessisch
Here’s a poem by my wonderful nephew Chris. Hope you enjoy his emotional and intuitive message.
“Our two Hearts will NeVer Grow AparT
Tho Circumstances can Drive us To different sides of the world, Our Hearts Forever intertwined in the Battle Of the EverLasting Heart of Pure Darkness..Both Seeking for the True Light Hidden Deep within the Shadows. And while we will Always Be Connected..We Shall Never get lost in the darkness…For even wen we cannot see our way…We Will Always See The Path To Each Other Hearts..And the CallinG of Each Others Souls.”

Love – Emmitt Fox
There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer.
There is no disease that enough love will not heal.
No door that enough love will not open.
No gulf that enough love will not bridge.
No wall that enough love will not throw down.
And no sin that enough love will not redeem.
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble.
How hopeless the outlook.
How muddled the tangle.
How great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.
And if you could love enough, you would be the happiest and most powerful person in the world.

Dream Within a Dream by Edgar Allan Poe
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow:
You are not wrong who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand–
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep–while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

Thoughful Thursday #49 Is it Love or Oxytocin?
Is it Love or Oxytocin?
Turns out there is love hormone called Oxytocin that can cause much confusion in deciding if you love someone.
For example, Oxytocin is released by simple body contact with a handshake or hug.
- You can think of someone in that warm and fuzzy way, Oxytocin is released.
- Oxytocin is released when a woman gives birth and Oxytocin helps in bonding with the child.
- Oxytocin is also released at orgasm in females. Males have it too.
- Oxytocin can be prescribed by a doctor and bought on the internet
Which seems to me to be a problem. The Oxytocin is released creating a bond with someone you are sleeping with who may not be worth bonding to.
Since this hormone elicits trust and a desire to maintain a relationship how do you know the relationship is worth it?
Do you get along well outside of an Oxytocin phase?
- If there is any violence in the relationship, it’s Oxytocin that you are addicted to not the person.
- The other person is unreliable but you still stick around, it’s Oxytocin.
- If you keep accepting unacceptable behavior, it’s the Oxytocin.
- If the relationship did not work out and you still miss that person, you are missing the Oxytocin not the person.
- Maybe you gained a lot of weight, it may be not enough Oxytocin (that explains a lot)
- Doing good works like helping the less fortunate releases Oxytocin (do good works and lose weight. Sounds like a win/win to me)
Here’s some good news, at anytime you can choose to share your Oxytocin with someone else. If it’s just the Oxytocin you want to share that’s fine.
But if you want a relationship too then pay attention to the other everyday stuff like trusting, reliability, openness, generosity, peacefulness, joy, happiness, companionship, then Oxytocin…
Get It?
