beast 1,884 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 me dad had a tough life, and despite going through some awful stuff he is the only person i know who genuinely has always let evrything wash over him, just has a stoic acceptance that what will be will be. i have always tried to share this fatalistic approach, and to be honest i've been through some bad shit over the past couple of years but have coped ok without really getting too worried or upset. i remember also these famous words from the great aussie cricketer keith miller, when asked by a reporter if he was feeling stress during a test match, miller - who was a fighter pilot during the war - replied, "listen, mate, a messerschmitt up your arse is stress, this is just a f***ing game." 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

haymin 2,465 Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Don't get much time to chill either at work getting pressure or at home with the kids running a mock lol once kids are sleeping I find I spend a lot of time laying in bed going over everything I need to do ect in my head n wake up really early in the morning doing the same! Tbh it drives me nuts so thinking of trying meditation, like the sound of that down a big glass of wine before your bed ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
