Stress Can Be Usefull (never thought I would say that)
Sharing a thought:
Stress can help us, sounds strange but consider the following, cavemen depended upon their physcial reaction to stress in order to survive. When confronted with anything that posed a threat the body's reaction to stress allowed the cavemen to be alert, focused and ready to "fight"...(is this sounding familiar to anyone)?
It is this survival response to stess that we still feel today when forced to deal with stress. Stress can be usefull (never thought I would say that).
Consider this: In nature, the continual wind on a tree can cause it to become very strong. This ever present stress forces the tree to stay grounded and dig deep to remain firmly planted in the ground.
Wanted to share this thought to all - especially to those memebers who are feeling high levels of stress. Our members are certainly strong fighters.
Love to all,
Jean
