Dreary

This is the kind of weather that I think my California friends really can't imagine. It's been five of six days now since we've seen the sun. It's rained many of those days, but otherwise it's just been gray. Depressing.

Jack,
Don't let outside forces affect how you are feeling.

You have a choice as to how you feel. That's what seperates us from the animals.

I'm pretty sure about that. That's what Stephen Covey says in his book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective people.

Have you read it?

Ah, cognitive therapy.

I often suggest it to my students. It's the old glass with some amount of fluid in it: half full or half empty? How you look at things affects how those things affect you.

For instance, you often look at my comments as "mean", when you should look at them as "amusing". :)

It's obviously half-full.
