Thought for today 5/29
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
—Soren Kierkegaard
We need to be aware of what we think—for as we think, we are. Our minds are like extremely powerful magnets pulling the reality of our lives into place. Whatever the dominant thoughts may be, they in effect create the quality of our day-by-day living, if we allow our thoughts to be consumed with the fearful, negative, and defeatist ghosts of the past, then we have decided what our present shall be since our thoughts determine our reality.
As recovering adult children we must make decisions as to whether we will entertain thoughts of the past—no matter how vivid or persistent—or whether we will choose to think of something else. We can rise above the conditioning of the past and choose thoughts of courage, of freedom, of community. Our dominant thoughts form the outer, concrete reality of our lives.
Today, I will choose to focus on the possibilities of life rather than the perils.

Good post. this is exactly what I am working on today. I want to fall into the black hole I feel like I am in and not think anymore about life and death and feeling responsible for family that wants to end their life but I am telling myself that now more than ever I have choose positive thoughts and act positve, not embrace the madness. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Many hugs and hope too,
Tammie
