Well it's Thursday time all over again....heck where do the days and nights drift off to. Seemingly into the past, yet for some they stay ever present in the conscious mind, playing the one track pony time after time....like an ear worm wriggling away.
Barge out of the deep dark rain spattered, wind raging cyclone, looking with purpose at the beauty of the wet mown lawns, the drops of rainfall on the petalled flowers, the green leaves turning to a forest glow.
What happens when we linger for too long in the negative neighbourhood, does it force us ever further into the pit of 'sorry for ourselves'. Can it let wonderment in or are we forcing all delight into
the dungeon of darkness. There is a flickering flame there for all of us, yet sometimes it glows dimly, not sufficient for us to see it or feel it enough to fan the flame and ignite enough push to eject ourselves from the solitude of silence.
It's not an easy route map, yet do we or can we delay our automatic response, purposefully hijacking it? 'Want' is up there with our choices, if we do not 'want' to, if our thoughts continually tell us we are unable, incapable, this becomes our mindset. We thus will work from this game plan and for sure we will remain within its network.
It's gonna take some effort.....think of it in small achievable doses, little by little. Can we not secure a successful outcome then, which in turn will bolster our self confidence. Grab onto who we are, if we are not sure anymore, begin with pausing for one moment to absorb your initial thought, listening to your gut instinct in a given situation. 'Automatic' may play its hand, try to resist and give yourself permission to listen to you.
Can you hear anything, what are you saying, hearing, feeling? Where does it sit within you....where in your body, how does it feel....heavy, breathless, tight? Stay with it, try not to fear it, push through; accept how you feel right now and make some space. Genuinely, when you have done this, positively move away from it leaving behind the remnants that whir through your brain. It's not as though you haven't acknowledged it, you have, so tell it so!!!!! and fling it for all you're worth.
Use a cathartic way of handling issues in your life, whatever works for you. Dabble about to find out, take charge....as your thoughts will become the words you say, the actions you take.....if you believe them often enough.
