Default Daily Thought From The Universe

Don't worry about your "negative" thoughts. They're par for the course in the jungles of time and space. Change them when you can, but when they overrun you, let them run. Because no matter how persistent they are, you can always spend just 5 minutes a day, in a quiet place, doing your best to imagine your dreams as if they've already come true; seeing yourself happy, laughing, smiling from ear to ear. This will be enough, it's always enough, even if while you're imagining, the negative thoughts creep in. After 5 minutes, leave it alone.

You're in time and space for one reason: to thrive. There's no 50/50 about it.

You are OF the Creator, BY the Creator, and now a Creator yourself, alive on a stage YOU designed for your own adventures. You were not an afterthought and you didn't design it to just eek by. All of the elements are beholden to you; you summoned them, you dreamed them into place, and now they conspire endlessly in your favor. "On a dime" your life can improve for the better with the slightest effort on your part, no matter how insurmountable the odds, nor how futile your thoughts and deeds may seem. You are "the prodigal child." In a heartbeat you're welcomed back into the fold. In an instant you can be carried along by life's current once you stop struggling against it. And for all of these reasons, and more, it's therefore as if your positive thoughts are 10,000 times more powerful than your negative thoughts. 10,000 times more in alignment with the magnificent tidal wave of energy that you are. 10,000 times more likely to become the things you want than the things you don't want, when you know these truths and you act on them.

Pretty cool.
Don't worry about your "negative" thoughts. They're par for the course in the jungles of time and space. Change them when you can, but when they overrun you, let them run.
I've been told that I'm only as sick as what I let steep inside, my secrets, crazy malevolent thoughts and all that yuck. I used to try and ignore the stuff and eventually it latched onto the honest to god normal human day to day minor stuff, until it would come all boiling out all over whoever was close.

I try to vent frequently in smaller doses now and have a few good people that have kown me long enough so when I neeed to shine the light on the darkness, I'm not afraid to let it out. The beast doesn't fare so well in the light, especially when another person trots their beast out on a leash, mine sesms to size up the opponent and realize he's not the alpha male he fantasized he was.

That make any sense?

Great post. And yeah Gooch, what you said makes lots of sense to me.

"Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.

Today's thought...

Ever notice,
that how you treat people in your life today
is the single, biggest factor
in determining how people in your life tomorrow,
even totally different people, will treat you?

It always works,
The Universe

Good Day Fellow Traveler,

Life's not about expecting, hoping and wishing, it's about doing, being and becoming.

It's about the choices you've just made, and the ones you're about to make, it's about the things you choose to say - today.

It's about the pictures that are, or are not, in the spaces around you.

It's about what you're gonna do after you finish reading this.

Jambo,
The Universe

to which e.e. cummings chimes in:
to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.

Alcoholism is a disease, but it's the only one you can get yelled at for having. Goddamn it Otto, you are an alcoholic. Goddamn it Otto, you have Lupus... one of those two doesn't sound right.

Default dont seem to be getting better

such beautiful stuff. thank you. my goal is to treat people better. i really want to improve in that area. mostly the wife. i want to be more considerate to what she wants. just to listen more to what she has to say about stuff and not tuning out. besides staying clean it is my biggest battle. i pray every day for patience, tolerance,love but then my actions can say something else.

You are living in the light of a new day.

Existing problems cannot be solved with the same mindset that created them.

Spread your wings in a new direction.

Always at your side,
The Universe

A very prominant person in my life used to tell me "If you think you can or if you think you can't. You're right!! Your brain is like a computer, it will only do what you program it to do."
I Try every morning to wake up and read something Good(The Bible or Devotional) before I get slapped on the face with all the jumk that comes at you. When I don't, that notorious little voice of negativity starts screeming louder and louder.
