  sell advertisment on the back of currency.

  get microsoft on the back of the $100 bill for say 1 billion dollars.

  JW Mentality

  by Crooked Lumpy Vessel in

  i recently received a visit from a sister who is moving out of the area.

  she was telling me how she would live in her new place on the weekends and then stay here locally in an apartment (mon - fri) while she and her husband finish out their last year before retirement.

  what made the conversation so mental was she was explaining this to me in terms of how she would be attending her meetings.

  Attending meetings and going out in field service etc. are the most important things in their lives, its stuff that cannot be missed. For at least 2 years after I stopped going to meetings I still had a funny feeling on tuesdays and thursdays and sundays, like there was something important or urgent that I had to go do, than a feeling of relief, when I realised I could just watch tv or sleep in instead.
  
  At home the schedule is still governed by meeting times, like late supper on tuesdays and thursdays, no lunch on sundays.
  
  Now I have problems prioritising other stuff

  Do You Need Praise From Others To Feel Validated?

  is that what makes you feel good about yourself?

  can you take criticism without taking it personal?

  Generally if someone criticizes a point I make, I view it as an opportunity to either learn something I didn't know or to teach them something they didn't know, depending on who is right.
  
  Of course having people agree with you does make one feel good...

  drink lots of water, like a litre, at once. and some exercise, like running, the headache will get a lot worse for a few minutes, than miraculously disappear, and you'll feel better than ever.
  
  or as mentioned, masturbate, same effect :)

  Offspring - Amazed
  
  Sometimes I think I'm gonna drown
  Cause everyone around's so hollow
  I'm alone
  Sometimes I think I'm going down
  But no one makes a sound
  They follow
  And I'm alone
  Yeah if I make it I'd be amazed
  Just to find tomorrow
  One more day and I'd be amazed
  Just to see it waiting
  And if I make it I'm still alone
  No more hope for better days
  But if I could change
  Then I'd really be amazed
  And when you know you can't relate
  To one more shiny face
  Your heart breaks
  No one cares
  And when you know you can't go on
  Cause everything is wrong
  Your heart breaks
  But no one's there
