		<description>Hello Jessica,

Please do not apologize! It is normal to vent out, no matter what the medium is. Hope your days are good now.

Yes, I have started taking medication and invigorating walks!

Thanks!

Smile!

		<description>Rahul, I reacted badly to you in my above comment. I am sorry to.

I was having a bad day the other day.

Please do try to relax by doing breathing exercises or doing something physical like going for an invigorating walk!</description>

		<description>Jessica,

Thanks for the good wishes.

Very FAIR!!! I shall refrain from placing links on your blog, relevant or otherwise. Whatsoever I may think to be so!!! :-)

I know. I need to relax.

Breathing ??? I am sure that is a  new one that I heard. I shall try that from today onwards...

Thanks and Sorry.

Ra.</description>

		<description>Rahul... Good luck with your endeavors.

Please refrain from placing more than one relevant link in your comments on my blog. This is fair warning. ok?

:)

You need to relax to get your blood pressure down. Breathing is good for that.

Breath in thru your nose for a count of 4 or 5
then out thru your mouth for a count of 3 or 4.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Brain&lt;/b&gt; - We&#039;ll always find other things that are more important, more necessary, more more more. I&#039;m finding though you need to make it a habit. A BAD habit.

Brian finish that 10&quot; by 10&quot; painting and post it to Flickr. You&#039;ll feel relief and happiness afterwards that you set out and finished it. Then again it may be one of those art pieces that takes years to complete.</description>

		<description>Phew !!! My &lt;a href=&quot;http://rahuldoes.wordpress.com/2008/01/09/rahul-sharma-dell/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Tech Support job&lt;/a&gt; gives me enough money to save for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://rahuldoes.wordpress.com/2007/06/29/new-job/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;NEXT phase &lt;/a&gt;of struggle that shall start next year!

Then I shall come back to this one.

However, daily telling oneself that the Year is NEXT is a struggle in itself...

P.S. FOr the last 3 days my Blood Pressure is at a constant 150/110 .However,if I DO die, someone else will produce this aforementioned movie, I am sure of it! Take care, Y&#039;all...</description>

		<description>Always having more ideas than time, money or ability can get down is hard. I am always trying to please myself with what I do... sometimes I&#039;m successful. I never liked the notion of struggling / starving artist either... its probably yet another excuse wandering in the back of my head, as to why it takes months to get a 10x10 painting done. I always find other things that need doing.</description>
