Comfort Spiral is NOT about positive thinking!
It is more like the last day of school
as you begin to suspect how wonderful your life really can be.
Dare to believe it.
Tons of illusion, mistaken beliefs
and "shoulds"
can finally be taken off of your shoulders. . .
can finally be lain down. . . "All truth passes through three stages:
First it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
Schopenhauer

Fearless Gentleness:
Every day annoyances crop up naturally.
They are often triggers for the less-than-perfect sides of our nature. But exploding never accomplishes anything positive.
Holding a lid on rage causes physical/mental problems.
But all this can be safely dissipated.
De-escalate.
Then the provocation becomes fuel!
It can propel you into the heights of well being.
Each time you refuse to "rise to the bait," you develop your
perspective and detachment "muscles."
Lots of complications are avoided this way!
Every time you handle some "problem" with relaxed dignity,
powerful inner detachment and increased freedom of spirit
become yours.
All the kinetic energy of the situation will flow non-
destructively to your strength and merit,
and also to collective world peace.
Really. . .
Try to greet each complication as a "work out opportunity."
YOU WILL GROW HAPPIER!
The Hawaiians say: "He Mea Iki'" it's just a small thing.
Come, walk along the shoreline of your heart. . .
It's ALL small things!
ALOHA!
