[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 618794, member: 17461"] So true MWM, that how we define the thing determines what it means to us. I think you are right too, in believing we can change the habit of defining things in a certain way. (Like the traffic example you used.) Eckhardt Tolle said something like this in [U]The Power of Now.[/U] He said to pretend everything that happens has happened exactly as you wanted it to. No energy wasted on resentment, or on stupid anger that accomplishes nothing. I did not know there was a name for this kind of thinking. Thank you for posting. I will try to find more information on this. Cedar [/QUOTE]
