Ygre23, you have presented a topic that is really taking on a way to think about what our personal clicking and tapping can mean.
And I did thank you for stuffing my "POSITIVE TEDDY BEAR THAT REALLY NEEDS SOME STUFFING". And I have seen "QUALITIES" in many different members of PC that can do just that. And I have named a few of those people but there are others too that I could easily mention.
In my first few weeks here at PC I met someone who was really struggling. And that person said to me "I feel guilty, I hug my computer that holds PC every day like a teddy bear, maybe I shouldn't do that, what does that mean, am I that bad....sobbing?" And I could understand what she was saying because I was doing that too and wondering if it was such a good thing and had I gone crazy? And my reply to her was, no, you must really need and if that is the case give yourself permission to fill your own needs.
And little by little I saw this person giving herself permission to embrace PC like a "TEDDY BEAR" and proceed. And little by little she quietly talked about her struggles and I could see some positive ideas and solutions being presented to her. And little by little she was very thankful and kept trying. And I was doing the same and then I started hearing some support myself and meeting some members that presented some options and even some challenges to me. And because my "BAD TEDDY BEAR WAS HUGGING ME, AND I WAS ALSO FRIGHTENED", for probably the first time in my life I truely began to "SLOWLY" work on adding stuffing to
a much better teddy bear. And one thing I had in common with this woman is that we were both very good at handing out "GOOD TEDDY BEARS TO OTHERS" but somehow were slowly taking the stuffing out of our own "GOOD TEDDY BEARS".
Two days ago I suddenly saw her in a different light, I could really see that even though she was only just slowly stuffing her "GOOD TEDDY BEAR",
there was enough stuffing in it and she was really starting to "HUG HER NEW TEDDY BEAR". I was really impressed by how much stuffing she had managed to put in that new teddy bear. And I made sure I told her how much I admired that "NEW TEDDY BEAR". And today she is taking that "NEW TEDDY BEAR WITH HER ON AN INTERVIEW FOR A JOB THAT DEEP IN MY HEART I KNOW WOULD BE PERFECT FOR HER". And I really hope she will do well as she so deserves it, but if she does not get that job, it is my hope that she will continue to "STUFF THAT NEW TEDDY BEAR". Because I am seeing a "REALLY BEAUTIFUL TEDDY BEAR". And, it is reminding me
to keep stuffing the teddy bear that I am working on too.
So Ygre23, maybe a good thing to do as anyone decides to enter in their code to bring him/her to PC everyday, before he/she does that consider what "TEDDY BEAR" that he/she is hugging onto that day and how that person can talk about "THE BAD TEDDY BEAR" and how he/she is making efforts to continue to stuff "A MUCH BETTER TEDDY BEAR". How do you bring and present and reinforce and even stuff "THAT BAD TEDDY BEAR"? How can you make attempts to truely add stuffing to a better bear "FOR YOURSELF THAT DAY" as well as encouraging others do "TRUELY" do the same?
