A FEW THOUGHTS TO PONDER ON:

Anger covers pain
Guilt traps amger
Anger traps the pain and we are left with hurt
Not dealing with the pain leads to depression
When angry, we are powerful in a false sense and it covers up our powerlessness..

When someone says, "they are afraid to hurt someones feelings", it is really a lie they tell themselves. The real truth is their fear of being rejected!

Having time alone is the only thing that will keep us human..

When I try to control myself and those around me, I am setting myself up for failure.

"Nostalgia is amnesia turned around" (Adrienne Rich)
(How sweet it is to remember, remembering adds to our history and it gives it dimension. Remembering and honoring are important, but different from longing for what never was)

Only when I am aware of the present, will I have the opportunity to be fully alive.

When you are feeling stressed or tense, do something that feels counterintuitive, relax your lips and part them slightly, you will notice an immediate simultaneous
shift in your energy from tense to calm...

An Historical commentary by John Lennon:
"We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself.
You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nuture it.

The first 3 lines are so correct. We will see if time alone does as you have indicated. I do prefer company...However, is it not that pain and time alone do not mix very well? Your thoughts...
