Hi Michael and thanks for this timely reminder. It's been almost 4yrs since i separated from my husband and feel I'm finally getting on top of things after many setbacks. This advice reinforces what I have been doing and will keep it up. Keep up the good work

Great article and most refreshing after some of your past, shall we say "negative, doom & gloom" bore. I would like to add that whilst a good prune of the dead wood will neaten things up and possibly allow for a healthy burst of new growth, that sometimes the result we seek will not flourish at all. The bush in question will only produce quality, sensational and exquisite flowers if it has been planted correctly, has a well developed, healthy root system and is able to absorb all the nutrients necessary to thrive - "a rose is a rose is a rose".

Thanks, Michael! One of the best articles lately. Very positive and uplifting in it's practical approach, and much more beneficial than some of those dark, negative and depressing thoughts. Yes, mate, let's get on on with our lives and forget the disappointments of the bitter past.

The more we can abolish our "negative" conditionalities and focus on what we want, growing into our own person, the better we and others will be. Good article, thanks for the read.
