precisely! *G* how can you change how you act, if you don't grasp why you act that way in the first place. It's like putting fresh siding on a house with a cracked foundation.

OTOH, I have known cases when you can't change the way you feel, but you can change how you act about it, and the act influences the feelings to change. ('pretend a virtue, even if you have it not' -rough paraphrase)

Hey, don't blame me. These are all from my Steven Covey "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" calendar. I are not that el-o-quent.
