Love that flexible mind, Jim! :-) For the future, here's maybe another clearer way to take a look at the whole thing (with thanks to Byron Katie): Generally, any feeling of stress or unpleasantness accompanying a thought is a cue that there is a mistake or distortion of some kind - - some kind of denial of the perfection that we (and our mirror) already are, here and now. So we might take a closer look at the thought. When we think (for example), "I just wish he [Bush] would wake up and go home," how does that thought feel in our bodymind? Not saying we *should* drop the thought, but how would we feel without it? Can we see any reason to drop it? (Again, not saying we should) And, finally, let's turn it around: Does "I just wish I [Jim] would wake up and go home" feel more true? Thanks again.
