Today’s Affirmation; I, Stephanie, (insert your name here if you like) spend time today thinking about what I think and feel. When I listen to my thoughts and feelings my mind, body and spirit feel connected and empowered. I have a chance today to effect my future by guiding my thoughts and feelings with the wisdom of the many books I have studied since I was twelve years old when I asked myself the question “Why are my parents not happy we have everything, a home, a car, a truck, motorcycles, horses, a dog, a cat and a family of four?” Then I was blessed to read my first positive thinking book which inspired me to want to be the boss of my mind, whatever that meant? Now I know what being the boss of my mind means to me; when I am thinking a thought that brings me fear or uncertainty, I catch the fearful thoughts, give myself comfort by sharing all the reasons that the fear is probably just my ego wanting to protect me again, (like when someone is late and I feel they are dead, because my dad died in the blink of an eye when I was 15 years old, so now everyone just dies, that is what my ego is protecting me from all the time wanting to avoid the grief of my fathers transformation back to pure energy.) Then I replace the fearful thoughts with more productive healthy thoughts like; I am sure the person will be here any minute, I send the person blessings to have a safe trip, I visualize the person enjoying the drive and soon my heart relaxes and calmness spreads over me like a warm blanket. Thank you for being the boss of your mind. I Love You. :~)
Today I am grateful for having the best car mechanic as he changed one glow plug in our TDI Golf for $ 5.00 plus the cost of the part, then to top it off, he has his own 4 car junk yard and in one of the four cars there was an arm rest that our car needed (as it has been broke since we bought the car) and I got to barter for saurekraut for the arm rest and having him put it in, Gratitude Dance, for getting to sleep in my own bed last night for the first time in twelve days and my entire body needed the comfort of my perfect latex mattress, that holds my physique like a mother holding her new baby and for waking up in my own home, with the normal noises like the barn cat that scratches and scrapes the door each day like fingernails on a chalk board, the crickets singing and the horses whinnying as their breakfasts are delivered. Thank you for the moments you spent here today. Thank you for being grateful for something or everything today. I Love You. :~)
