    I am going to try out the Vulcan exercise of Kolinahr. Not that I want to achieve the Kolinahr but get familiar with it. when people annoy you, who does it hurt and cause pain, you but with the kolinahr you try to teach yourself not to be affected by what people say to you. I have often thought about something I heard years ago 'If you hate someone then either they don't know you hate them or they don't care' . I am also gonna try and talk less about other people, I work only with women and most ...
