As we grow up, we must disgard the clothes that are too small and wear bigger ones. Thus it is as we grow inside. All at once we realize the thoughts we had before no longer fit. We look upon a certain thing in a completely different way. It seems it sneaked up and attacked us, but it didn't . The new thinking was brought about by diligent work day in and day out, sometimes when we aren't even aware that we are doing it. This is true of forming new and better ways to look at things, but also for forming new and hindering thoughts and feelings, too. We must be on our guard to feed our minds and hearts good and positive things so that we grow in a healthy way.

This isn't easy. When you're having a bad day, it's just too hard to think "Happy Thoughts" and do the joy joy dance. Tomorrow comes though, and with a thirst for peace and healing, a little light might come in to nourish you, even if you have to call your t and explain you've fallen in the hole again.

If we nourish our bodies with foods that are good for us, we will feel better and our bodies will be healthy and strong. If we eat junk all of the time, our bodies will become ill and weak. So it goes with our well being. When we feed our heart and minds "junk" we will start to decay. Therefore, we must remain vigilent over our thoughts every day to make sure they are positive.
