W j 1 f x if Is i ' 8 4 I I EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, January 9. 1955 As We Live Dwelling en Put Dalighls Dulls Present Enjoymtni ! It is fun to reminisce about happy experiences of . the past. At Christmas we recall how it was when we wera children. We remember the excite ment and fun of having the whole family come d o w n stairs early in .the morning to see what Santa Claus Dr. Huxlock brought. We think of Christmas dinner with the assembled fam ily grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins, in, addition to our own family. At graduation time we recall the happy days of our own graduation, when we were the center of attention, when there were parties and festivities of some sort almost every minute of the day for weeks ahead of the big event. We think back to the new clothes, the flowers, and all the gifts we received. Why shouldn't we enjoy these happy recollections? Why should 0we put them in the storehouse of our memories, never to savour the pleasure of recalling the "good old days." Within limits and with caution we can bring them out from time to time. The important thing is not to allow our imaginations to run rampant, embroidering them so that they are out of all pro portion to the reality they rep resent. "" ' " ' "'. Interferes With Happiness Too much dwelling on happy memories as well as on unhappy ones interferes with our hap piness and our adjustment to the present. If, for example, to day's circumstances make our Christmas celebration very dif ferent from what they were when we were children, - how can we enjoy the holiday if we are constantly thinking about how Christmas used to be? And how can we adjust suc cessfully to the duties and re snonsibilities of adult life if we think too much about the fairy tale weeks of graduation : when the whole world seemed to re volve around us? LETTERS FROM READERS Let - down feeling: "After every party or holiday celebra tion, such as Christmas, I have a let-down feeling that makes it hard for me to do things for a day or two. Is this normal?" (A) It is perfectly natural to have a let-down feeling after some special event. You get keyed-up and excited, you work hard in preparation for it, and you are naturally physically and mentally tired, if not exhausted, after it is over. Your body needs rest, and that is why it is nec essary to push yourself to keep up to your usual speed and out put, it is wise to take it easy By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. until you feel that you are back to normal. - ' ' Masculine disorderliness: "My husband is extremely careless about his clothes and possession, and so are my two sons. Is this masculine characteristic?" (A) No, some men are neat as pins, while some women are as disorderly as your husband and sons are. It is all a matter of training. If. you picked up and put. away, under lock and key, the things your family left lying around and required them to pay a small "fine" to get them back, I think you would find they would get over being disorderly in a very short time. Changeableness: "I notice my daughter, age 16, is very pleas ant and charming with outsiders but very disagreeable and com plaining at home. I can't under stand it." " ' , (A) You daughter has learned that she must be agreeable to outsiders if she wants them to like her. At home she has dis covered that she can be dis agreeable and get away with it. Within limits, you expect people to show their bitter sides to out siders. But they should oc casionally show them to the family also. Don't do things for her when she is disagreeable, and this will motivate her to be more pleasant. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.)
