In reply to Re: Finally something positive from me -- kinda, posted by Racer on May 9, 2004, at 17:37:48
> I posted to you over on Psychology in response to your post about Rationality. I hope some of it gets through to Rod -- why do I always feel he's stirring the pot?
..........Racer, I agree he stirs the pot but not in a way that appeals to me...It could be that I have yet another deficiency in not 'getting' him.
.............I like your anger. And the one size fits all is so appropriate.>>When I was younger, I truly believed that if I could only think right and not feel, I could be free of the distress I felt.
..................Oh, you are so right! I tried that for a number of years! (Like a decade) It didn't work then, either.
.......Racer, as to the comments below, ANYthing that will get you to eat more is ok with me. Carbs, not carbs, whatever....I only know I'm almost a foot shorter than you and weigh more, and I'm not fat. (I'm not a skinny model either) But, I want you to have food. You are not ready for end-of-life care, and as a hospice volunteer, I can almost guarantee that (every Monday, people die around me--my S.O. asks, "Were they found trying to get out their window when they heard you were coming?").
> I still struggle a lot, though, with the "well, if you know how it's supposed to be done, why don't you just do it?" voices. You know, "Well, you know you're supposed to eat more, so why don't you just eat more?".....Corpus, body. Yeah I don't live too far from Corpus Christi. Guess what that is? Body of Christ! Yikes! I don't know I could even live there because I am so bad!

> So, I will work at incorporating that new perspective. (See: "In-corp-orate" Corpus = body, right? I will take that new perspective into my BODY.)
