          If you watched these all you will know what shame is and how it correlates to addiction. Shame is probably the most influential piece in my life. Please let more video's flow, they don't need to stay on these topics. Show TED talks that changed your life.

            It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore Resvelte.

            Stand strong.

              Brown says some interesting things in the video. Brene Brown: The power of vulnerability | TED Talk | TED.com. These are super powerful video's and shame is the core of addiction as far as I have learned.

                I also like this B Brown talk: Brene Brown: The power of vulnerability | TED Talk | TED.com
                and think this is so powerful: Monica Lewinsky: The price of shame | TED Talk | TED.com,
                especially if you were paying attention to the news at the time Monica went through this.

                Sorry - I see you just posted the Brown one. Anyway, it is a really good one.

                  "When you ask people about love. They always described heartbreak. When I asked about belonging, they will tell you their most excruciating experiences of being excluded. When you ask people about connection, the stories they told me were about disconnection". Some powerful things are said in that [MENTION=18725]NoSugar[/MENTION]

                  If I could quote it all I would but at about just before 8:45 it hits hard. So please watch. To tell the story with your whole heart. To be authentic. Vulernablity being beautiful. The willingness to say I love you first.

                  All truncated but thats some of the content.

                      [MENTION=20895]Orimus[/MENTION] I've only gotten through the first. Been trying to edit 2 gigs of photos and videos of yesterday. Will let you know when I've seen them

                      The first one touches on something I have watched in behaviour and been full witness too. Gambling but I have only gambled twice... if we are talking money. At one point in time my helping hand had my truck covered in scratch tickets. Never was my cup of tea. I always knew what I was getting for my money in the substances I wasted money on. I have to look closer at the end of the video because I was busy and not paying attention.

                      Thanks for your shares and support.

                        What interests me about the first video in the last post and what I got to see of it was the numbers are way off in who dies from what. I use inhalers to prevent issues as asthma is a misrecorded number. I'm sorry I got lost in photo's. Family is becoming increasingly important to me.
