Stress
And the Art of Living…
Stress
….and the art of letting go
My great grandfather lived to be 99 years old. During his life, he struggled often with depression, and eventually he came to the conclusion that it was his duty to be happy.
He was brought up in a strict Lutheran German family, so “duty” was a word he knew about. It’s not quite so much in vogue anymore, but I want to leave this thought with you as we go through this workshop. Why would he have come to the conclusion that being happy is not a right, not a privilege, not a random happening, but a Duty – and a choice?
