Is Your Glass Half Full Or Half Empty


Today mine is empty,the after effects of a xmas shopping trip yesterday with my sister and brother-in-law. On days like this I always ask myself "Why Did You Do It". The answer would be because I would go insane if I didn't. I read earlier an article on CFS/ME which described how to promote healing through passion and improve your quality of life. Passion through music,art,creativity. So as I type I am listening to Bob Dylan sing. It also stated that you should try to experience feelings of gratitude,joy,compassion, love and kindness for yourself and others....which leads me back to my shopping expedition. My sister was my brain as she completely understood my lists ( scribbles on the back of envelopes) which came out of the depth of my handbag at regular intervals and she only raised her eyebrows and gave me funny looks a few times My brother-in-law provided a steady supply of bottled water,cups of tea and a turkey sandwich. All in all it was a nice day and after the pain killers kicked in I was even to be found sitting in Borders humming along to the xmas songs. So, for all that I am grateful and todays pay back has been worth it and tomorrow...who knows...my glass could be half full.
I came across some information on using VALGANCICLOVIR (a anti viral drug) for the treatment of ME. I think there may have been some trials done in America. For now it is time to experience joy and have Greek chocolate, I shall then see if I can find anymore information.
