Become The Story You Create

Cabbage: A Natural Mandala

Cabbage: A Natural Mandala

Today I was doing my morning reading of the New York Times when an article by Judith Warner caught my eye that reminded me of a conversation that I was just having with a friend about her daughters and her inability to keep their problems from becoming hers. I ran across this jewel that I think has a wonderful message for us all today:

“We fuse with the words we use,” the psychologist Keith Saylor told me last week. “We become the story we create. And there’s a story being created about who your child is.”

Of course Dr. Saylor was talking about our relationships with our children but the same principle applies to how we think about ourselves and our lives and what we manifest or create in our daily lives.

I am grateful that I can now manifest and create wonderful things in my own life and that I choose to create love, peace, beauty, wisdom and understanding in my world.

Gratitude . Walking . Affirmations . Healing

Rocks . Road . Fall

Rocks . Road . Fall

As I look back on this past year I know that one of these three things have saved my life: Gratitude, Walking and Affirmations. They have helped me heal and led me to new ways of thinking and living. I am very grateful for the change in my life.

The gratitude keeps me in a spirit of acceptance of what I have and who I am.

The walking just keeps my mind clearer and my body stronger. The visual stimulation that I get everyday from the scenery has helped me get back to my love of nature and it has inspired me to draw again.

The affirmations help me to reach out to the future and to possibilities and to others. I not only affirm good things for myself, but I affirm good things for my family and my friends. My affirmations for my loved ones at this point are manifesting themselves in amazing ways. I am growing in my ability to make affirmations for myself and to make them come true.

My healing has been helped along by all these things and by the help of my family and friends. My healing has been helped by Louise Hay, Deepak Chopra, Ernest Holmes and others. I am grateful for the journey that I began about a year ago. I am grateful that I have been transformed.

The Good, The Bad and the Ugly

Study in Gray, Black and White [and rust]

Study in Gray, Black and White (and rust)

Recently one of my blog members, Paul/Pacmac stated:

I have come to believe that just thinking or focusing on what is good or beautiful is no different than focusing on what is bad or ugly.

That is fine, but how is one to keep oneself out of depression with that frame of mind? If we follow that line of thinking then, there is nothing depressing or bad about depression.

I don’t think I can live that way. You can read more of our discussion that started on the usefulness of Deepak Chopras work in dealing with depression.

Responsibility

Responsibility

It is a powerful thing to realise that I am responsible for my own feelings and my own thoughts. It can be a very scary thing to contemplate that, but it can also be an incredibly powerful thing if I can see it as a tool or as a gift and that I can be a master of my own life, that life is not something that happens around me. I can make my life whatever I want it to be.

We can claim responsibility for things inside of ourselves. We can claim responsibility for all of our feelings.
