There are some of people who can control themself when negative emotions come to them, because they know the secret how to keep the deep peace in their heart. and the secret is live in the present moment. To a large degree,the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to live the present moment. The most important you should do is irrespective of what happened yeasterday or last year, and what may or may not happen tomorrow. The present moment is where you are--always. Do not allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments. Now is the only time we have, and the only time that we have any control over. When our attention is in the present moment, we push fear from our minds. To combat fear, the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention bact to the present. I wish all of you people who read this will try to learn how to live in the present moment, and let go of all anxious , frustrated, depressed, and hopeless. Wish you happy and in peace~

Thank you~ They just like angels, give me courage when I'm weak, make me happy when I'm feel bad. There are some of people abuse dogs or cats in China, but I'm powerless for these things most time. I hope my coutry can legislate a law to protect animals as early as possible~

Summer_Lee Welcome to myLot..I hope you continue with your positive attitude. It is a great reminder to all who read it. What you think controls your life. In fact it is the only part of life we do control. One of my favorite sayings is 'two men looked out from prison bars, one saw mud, the other saw stars'. It is all in how we think and no one can force us to think differently than how we choose. Living in the present is excellent advice since that is also when we choose what to think.
