gratfulness=no judgement

when you express gratitude for ALL the blesings in your life; you dont have time to judge others.


Because you're so blessed you wont have time to think of anything "wrong" in others.

Life is curly

So... though things may be tangled and uncomfortable now (or at some point), it will always straighten out. Life has a way of making us experience it!

So I think Life is Curly...

It has knots and it has tangles, it has rips and tears... so though it may never be straight...it wont stay knotty, tangled and ripped and torn too long. Hang on... and...

Dont worry, choose happy!

"easier said than done"

I use that phrase....but not too often.

I think of it as a way to escape reality. You say that when there is a task to take on that you
1. Dont want to have to face
B. Dont want to fail at
III. Dont know how to begin

We all know that when we get on the other side of that task there are a million ways we can replay it or a million ways we can tell ourselves "I should have done it this way or that way".

Whats the point? Just do it... whether its easy to say or not... DO IT!

Learning to love

It's important to give love to yourself and notice when you are failing at it. I'm failing...

So... when I fail at loving myself I send myself reminders in the form of "pain", "discomfort", "akwardness" I will trip up stairs, slam my hand in a car door, lose my swim top... seriously this stuff has happend. These are all wake up signsto myself that I'm not treating myself well.

NO, I DO NOT DO THIS ON PURPOSE, but the fact of the matter is..subconciously yes I'm sabatoging myself...

WOrking on it!!!

Important things

I cant say I'm prefect! lol Isnt that funny? I mean seriously who is perfect... There is a lesson I struggle with learning...and I'm happy in one way that its a daily struggle and I'm sad in other ways that its a daily struggle.

happy: I have great people in my life that I communicate with daily. They want to share love, give love, share time, give time, etc so on an so forth.

sad: I dont always know how to receive it. I back away from it, laugh it off, or feel unworthy.

"the most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love and let it come in." Morrie Schwartz


If I dont know how to let it come in, am I really capable of giving it? Isnt love infinite? Like the infinity sign... it never ends and if I dont take love in....how do I give it out...it would break the infinte cycle wouldnt it?

Anyway... Learning... challanged... trying...

Lessons revisited....

Do you ever tire of learning the same lesson over and over again? Let me rephrase...
Do you ever tire of having the same lesson presented to you over and over again?

You have now entered FRUSTRATION STATION. To exit this depot you must LEARN the friggin' lesson!!!!

I'm constantly presented the same lesson to learn over and over again... *sigh* And I am willing to share it... maybe YOU can help ME...or maybe I can help YOU.

Either way I hope there is a benefit to what I"m about to write.

I am a Compulsive Overeater:
Definition: Uncontrolled eating or binging, during which I have pressured, frenzied episodes of eating and sometimes can not remember the onset of the episode. I will continue eating past the point of feeling full (thanksgiving full). The Episode is usually followed by guilt and depression.

This disorder is similar in severity to Alcoholism, Drug/Narcotic Addiction, and Sex Addiction. There is NO cure, yes it can kill you (directly or indirectly) there is only constant treatment. And it SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

About the Lesson...

I've been given a "tool" a way to help me beat this addiction, an advantage along with knowledge, education, support, and will power.

Still almost weekly I overeat, to the point where I'm in both physical and emotional pain. Why?
Yes yes because its an addiction... but aside from that. I have all these "tools" and all this knowledge, so again WHY?

Answer: I have been presented with the lesson- The question has been posed- I've answered the question.... I'm addicted, I've been receiving help.... but I'm not being MINDFUL of my response. I'm not being THOUGHTFUL to the lesson presented and my response.

When a person has a huge issue like an incurable disease or disorder... emotional conflicts and complex behavior patterns need to be dealt with. I have received help, guidance and continue to receive this and probably always will (bc there is no cure only maintenance). There is more... there is something I've not tapped into to help me Thoughtfully and Mindfully learn this lesson.

My journey continues... to help me find the untapped items... I blog, journal, meditate, and go to positive resources for assistance. Lesson still left Thoughtfully Unlearned.
