Yakety Yak!…… YaDaYaDaYaDa!….. For more years than I’d care to admit, I’ve been talking to myself aloud – and enjoying these conversations – one-sided as they are! My subject matter is mostly generic and scripted, i.e., “You’re not lookin’ bad at all for 78!” or “What are we planning to do today?”, or “You did a good job at that!”, etc. My discovery of late is I haven’t taken advantage of the REAL opportunity this nebulous activity offers me below the surface of my emotions!
I’m mindful of a kind of “Self-Talk” that emits negative messages that scar and cripple the Spirit..always pulling the Self down at every chance! The words of self-loathing, disrespecting the Self so deeply, it cannot love or be loved, often spiraling downward to ultimate despair and loneliness and pain of Heart. When I consider my issues that need healing, it makes good sense for me to use all this ‘lonely energy’ and deliberately CHOOSE TRUTHFUL CONTENT for the MESSAGES I’M GIVING TO MY ‘SELF’ and transform these conversations into healing nuggets that can strengthen and give me peace.
CHOICE AND CONTENT
I know I am essentially Good. I know that I am not lesser than any other human being. If I feel otherwise, I am lying to myself! Until now, I have allowed myself to remain misguided, instead of correcting my thoughts or feelings that promote discomfort and dis-ease. The truth is, such feelings are baseless…they are lies with a life of their own inside me, which will continue to wreak havoc on my future peace, joy and happiness, until I examine my dialogue and, when necessary, root these untruths out and replace them with honest, supportive commentary.
I will strive to have only affirmative ‘Self discussions’ with deliberate intent! After all, who knows me better than ME!
There is no time like the present and I am ready! On My Mark…Get Set…GO!
I’LL BE COMING ‘ROUND THE CORNER FROM THE INSIDE….BUT AT THE FINISH LINE I’LL BE ON THE OUTSIDE!
