This may be passsive aggressive, but it sure as hell worked on me. I started praying... alot.. even talking to my Mom, yes she is deceased, she doesn't answer, so don't be alarmed. lol. I wondered, "What would my Irish Mother do?". My Mother was very warm, but very strict at the same time. She had a way of making you believe what she said was actually good for you. I would rail against her, but then, come to think of it.. she was probably right and whatever it was could come to no good end, and I would see it in her logical no nonsense way.
