When your life lies in pieces all around you, you need glue, not tears. If you've already suffered one tragedy, don't create for yourself another. You do just that when you indulge in endless grief and self-pity. In times of trial you need rational thought, not weak sentimentality.
Emotion is like a drug. The more you indulge in it, the more it grows on you. And emotion is a fish that swims in the ocean of thought. You cannot experience an emotion unless your thought process is in operation.
If you've suffered irrecoverable loss, whether of property or opportunity or a loved one, accept it. Accept it because there's really nothing else you can do. Now map out in your mind what you must do next to regain equilibrium in your life.
Feed your brain with the right messages. Make positive statements to yourself and dwell on what they imply. Repeat them like mantras. Your mind will come to accept what you keep on telling it. It must because it has no will of its own. It's nothing but a vehicle. You are the driver.
Your mind is the glue that mends, heals and makes whole again. Use it the way it's meant to be used and patch up the pieces of your life. If you are the patient who suffers, you are also the physician who heals.
