Trying to make your heart fit like a glove...
It's kind of a funny thing
our body is made to withstand some of the most
horrific happenings
It's a machine....all the little parts add up
to having a good day
"If you have your healthy
you're a wealthy man."
I'm a true believer in that
but it's funny how fragile we really are
how one thing can set us on a downward spiral
disregarding our health
and drowning those bad feelings in whatever
thing we can consume to make us forget the moment
or maybe a successions of moments.
I'm glad that I have figured out how to make my mind
gravitate towards being more grateful than feeling bad.
I think our society has also conditioned us to see the negative
how long can you watch t.v. without a commercial reminding you that
you're overwhelmed with life and it's upsetting so take their pill.
People all over the world some of them have almost nothing and yet
they assume the "attitude of gratitude" if you will and they
remember to be grateful for things.
It took me a long time to be able to see life differently
and it made me feel like I was crazy like there were 2 people living inside me
and essentially perhaps there are
there's the ego the mind...that wants to cling to misery
because it gives you ego if you can cope with it
give yourself a pat on the back! You made it! :thumbs up:
Also people will relate to your misery before they relate to your
happiness. Ever notice how critical the public is over your new found happiness
than they are over your replayed sadness?
I am making a thankful tree
Nicole's gonna draw me a big bare tree and I'm gonna
hang it in my (soon to be when i have enough money) office/study room
and everyday im gonna add leaves (sticky notes) of things I am
thankful for =)
I think it's a good practice and will remind me of how
fortunate I really am
My apartment is starting to really come together and feel homey
I mean it has for awhile but now I've just gotten it together more
I'm baking a ton of stuff for christmas for presents because
I have not enough money to be buyin everyone stuff that's just not gonna work for me
I'll post a picture of my thankful tree when I start it =)
I can hold basic conversations with my hands these days
ASL is totally bad ass and pretty
ok it will be more pretty when I don't have to think so much
and my hands aren't so jerky and more flowing when I speak
with them
but this is my first semester and that kind of speaking
takes time and practice.
Joshua used to sing me this song all the time =)
Have you ever thought about what protects our hearts?
Just a cage of rib bones and other various parts
So it's fairly simple to cut right through the mess,
And to stop the muscle that makes us confess
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys
