Embrace Your Feelings Like A Frenchman

A friend emails: I used to cringe when my shrink urged me to embrace my feelings. No way, I said, that’s so…American. So Oprah!

He responded: Embrace your feelings as if you were French, then.

Suddenly it all made sense. So I embraced my sadness, my rage, my fear, my joy like a Frenchman circa 1952. It helped!
