It also came to me that this "undercurrent of sadness" could just be part of the human condition??? Some of us are "wired" to be generally more happy than others...Sorry, but it's true.

Of course what we DO with our lives and our thoughts can make a difference, but why this insane push to be "happy" all the time???





shiny...yah, I think it's clear that my disposition tends towards the pensive, the moderate...not the bouncing off the walls blissful! But, DB'ing (and h) have helped me to lighten my mood load somewhat...a bigger appreciation for the little things, more gratitude, etc. Still, though, there IS residual sadness for lots of things...some of it from still healing, from the complexities of life...some of it external...the sad things that happen to others, etc.

I **think** (ASSumption) that part of h's concern is that HE is responsible for my sadness/unhappiness. OR, that I will BLOW. He's said before that I seem like a time bomb at times. What's a bummer to me is that I feel as though I've really worked that out over the last 6+ months. Maybe it just takes more time.
