How hard is it to think and say only positive things? Mighty difficult, actually. With this PMC, I'm so aware of what I'm saying, especially after the fact.
Yesterday (Day 1 of PMC), I barely had my eyes open and I blew it.
You see, each and every morning we wake up to DJ voices, commercials and (sixties) music of the local AM radio. My husband is a radio technician, so he considers setting the music alarm to 'his' station the 'good employee' thing to do. He's very loyal to his radio stations, he is.
The first words that came out of my mouth were: "I hate that commercial so much". I can't say much more about it, though, because that would be negative talk, and I don't want to go there.
I guess I'll have to start getting up before the radio turns on in the morning... or I'll have to think of something encouraging to say about annoying radio ads (oops, there I go again!).
Or you could just take a vow of silence. ;-) It would be easier.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, Danica... that sounds like a plan! ;)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about you is that you're real with your feelings, good and bad.God knew our day would be full of mistakes but He said a righteous man just picks himself up and starts again.So you blew it ,don't be so hard on yourself. I love you just the way you are.
ReplyDeleteI have found in my own life that there are periods of such rapid spiritual growth that I am stunned. Then suddenly I fall off the cliff. That is because I, all of us, still are carried in "jars of clay". Our bodies are still our bodies, our hungers are still the hungers of the body but not the spirit that resides in them...know this my dear friend, the closer you get to the goal, the fewer the failures will be. Keep pressing toward the mark. You will most assuredly succeed.
