Negative Thinking


Negative thinking produces negative ways and weak living. It undermines our morals so that we develop a "what's the difference" attitude. But a positive faith in God, as each of us understands Him, gives strength to the body and courage to the soul.

Listen


I intend to listen to my own thoughts concerning my life. I'll be receptive to advice, but I'll do what my conscience dictates, even if I incur disapproval.

The Past


... we need to view our past from the perspective of everything that we've ever done or not done being over. We can't undo or redo it -- we have the choice to look back at the past either through eyes clouded by ego judgments or through an inspired point of view. We can forgive ourselves or we can shame ourselves.
(Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, Inspiration, p. 89)

Being Married


It takes something to get married: nerve, hope, a strong desire to make a certain statement -- and it takes something to stay married: more hope, determination, a sense of humor, and needs that are best met by being in a pair.
