Usually a specific cause however and once it's dealt with, the troubled head goes away. As you say, you then wonder why you got so worried in the first place.

And sensitivity! I have to keep a tight rein on that!<br /><br />You're so right - perceived misunderstandings can quickly escalate if not dealt with and often just dealing with them straight away is the answer and you end up wondering why you were so worried in the first place!

The other is a conversation I need to have very soon so I will just face it head on. <br />But must say it all felt lighter by Monday morning; it really is strange how different moods can change perspective on things quite significantly. But when all the niggles come together they seem to feel bigger and, of course, once you go down that route....!<br />Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075393268513251879.post-8457485115354466442018-04-17T17:25:53.080+01:002018-04-17T17:25:53.080+01:00Haha, well thank you (blush)!

Funnily enough you can have a really troubled day but then wake up the next day (if you've managed to get to get any sleep in the first place of course) and have a really good day. It can turn on a sixpence but always best to deal with any perceived misunderstandings rather than let them fester (says she who often isn't brave enough to do so!).<br /><br />As for the song, sounds like just the kind of thing that would actually clear a troubled mind, so good you thought of it.
