]]> Comment on Linda’s Favorite Poems — Gerard Manley Hopkins by rita fernandez http://www.lindabarlow.com/2008/02/26/favorite-poems-gerard-manley-hopkins/#comment-140 rita fernandez Tue, 01 Jul 2008 21:28:10 +0000 http://www.lindabarlow.com/2008/02/26/favorite-poems-gerard-manley-hopkins/#comment-140 Hello, I just tapped in "fear of standing still". I have been suffering from labryntitis for the last 13 weeks. I have gone from an active, independent, joyful woman to something akin to a cloistered nun. I can't leave the house without someone to accompany me. The loss of freedom is affecting me greatly although I keep this a secret from my nearest and dearest. I don't know how I would feel if I was experiencing this like you from an early age. Your piece sounded like an introduction to a book. You write beautifully. I will try to let go, let this 'thing' pass over me as you recommend. Is it a pride thing? The dread of passing out or fainting in public? Yes I am gulty of pride! Will let you know how I get on. Thank you again. Hello, I just tapped in “fear of standing still”. I have been suffering from labryntitis for the last 13 weeks.

We all have somewhat different metabolisiums so results will vary. The ones that claim fast and easy results are always very hard to stick with and most times the person gains back more than when they started. We need to make small changes in our diets that we can live with and allow ourselves time for them to become habits then we can make a few more as time goes on. I like to say "Make change you can live with". The keyword is fad diet or the latest one. We all have somewhat different metabolisiums so results will vary.

It seems that everyone's body reacts uniquely to different types of dieting; for me, it's all about low carb. The fewer carbs I eat in a day, the better I look and feel. My mind even feels sharper. The book that turned it all around for me was Protein Power, so check it out if your interested. Best luck on your journey! That’s an epic you wrote ;)

I read your novel Leaves of Fortune 18 years ago and it was a photocopy of the original of my roommate as reading materials for university students. We surely could not afford a book priced in US dollars then. I love it so much and all these years I am always thinking to translate it into Chinese and am always worrying someone else will do it. Sorry I did nothing. Happy birthday to you. I am going to 40 this September. Now I am studying in Athens, Greece and will be back Beijing in July doing my job of translating and editing in a publishing house. Will visit your blog every day in future. Hi, Linda.
