Realizing this has taken a huge load off my shoulders.
Take care
Well, my thoughts can, and have, and do (sometimes) hurt me. Thoughts can also heal too, and be joyful, which is just as real as when my thoughts can be hurtful.
FWIW, speaking for myself, I have this present moment, and my past and my future. I have all three.
I appreciate your opinion, but my experiences differ.
