Did the whole part of this chapter about magical thinking really spark interest with anybody else? I often don't know whether to listen to my intuition, what "rings" true to me, or to other people's opinions. How do I know how much work to do? I wish by working on myself all the time and achieving enough in this life, I could somehow buy eternal happiness.

Dear Adam,

I think we can probably all relate. It's really difficult to rely on your own intuition when we have low self esteem. Also with so many negative thoughts running through our heads, how can we feel good about what we are thinking? But I think buying eternal happines also falls under the catagory of "expectations." No one is happy all the time and just remeber, there is a big difference in being happy all the time and not being anxious and depressed. I hope to achieve a nice happy medium.

Good Luck, Mellie

Dear Adam,

As goofy as I may sound...I believe It's already yours. It's a gift- accept.

Peace, Carolyn
