QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

All will be well.

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

Happiness is fleeting - it lasts the time it takes to tear the paper of your Christmas presents or blow out the candles on your birthday cake

 

Rather seek the blessedness that comes from living a decent, honest life - smile at strangers in the street, give small amounts when it's right, speak the truth and try to uplift the sorrowful, broken hearted, lost and contrite.

 

For life is the journey - not the destination - seek beauty in each sunrise and sunset and the way will rise up to meet you and the shadows of the night will fall behind you

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

Yes, I've been living long enough to be
Forgiven
For the bones I broke I had to make
A living (a living)

But we won't back down from anything
In search of a remedy
No we won't back down from anything
In search of a remedy

Father put his foot down on my games
Forever
So in the marketplace I stay calm
And clever

And we won't back down from anything
In search of a remedy

No we won't back down from anything
In search of a remedy

It will all be ok in the end and if it's not ok then it's not the end 🙂

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

@Former-Member, what a wonderful fabulous thread you started here, thank you Heart Smiley Happy

My go-to phrases at the moment.

One you already said which came to me in regards PTSD flashbacks happeneing repeatedly lately...

"That was Then, This is Now"
______________

When I am struggling with irritation or anger

"Love is an act of the will"

"Kindness is free"

______________

When I am in immense physical pain and when faced with horrible situations where I am struggling.

"It never lasts"

"This too shall pass" 

"Situations are temporary"

________

 

When I am procrastinating or shirking doing some job...or hiding from the world

This isn't going to get the baby a new dress.
________

And when I am catatrophysing... 

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

________

When I am struggling with judgementalism and control-freakedness towards others - I say their name and then...

<namehere> May you find peace, may you find happiness, may you be calm, may you prosper.

I might have to work through a LIST of suspects on that one and at the end, my own name...

Moongal, May you find peace, may you find happiness, may you be calm, may you prosper.
