Gratitude is a way for people to appreciate what they have instead of always reaching for something new in the hopes it will make them happier or thinking they can't feel satisfied until every physical and material need is met. Gratitude helps people refocus on what they have instead of what they lack

Shame, by its very nature, urges us to hide from others and ourselves. Perhaps you experience this hiding in your own life. Many people fear the thought of being exposed or seen for who they really are, and that fear can be completely overwhelming.

What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.” Music has been an important part of human culture for thousands of years, and its impact on our emotions and style is undeniable. From the way we dress to the way we feel, music has the power to influence us in profound ways. Here's a closer look at how music influences our emotions and style.

THC - Let me be clear though: It is not the fault of our caregivers for not giving us what we needed, and having an emotional wound is now not our fault. Because we were not equipped to handle the perplexing and often confusing experiences as children, these wounds manifest into adulthood as defenses, patterning, and triggers. In a way, these manifestations keep us safe and protected, in other words, they numb us from the organic experiences of life. mindful insight with the lovely Big becks over some chai tea vibes and conversing on the dating process

One way of looking at the emotions we feel is that they indicate a kind of implicit, moral ordering of things. They reveal what we think or believe is valuable, what is meaningful, and even what is sacred to us. There’s a kind of wisdom located in them that we can learn to live in accordance with.

Many people feel exhausted, drained, angry, tired, and depressed by the end of the day. Fatigue may set in as early as 10 in the morning, and there isn’t enough coffee in the world to make it go away. Every little irritation seems to be magnified. A fight between two siblings can put you over the edge. A few drops of spilled milk causes you to feel panicky. The tasks assigned to you at work seem burdensome and overwhelming. Of all the judgments we pass in life, none is more important than the judgment we pass on ourselves.”  “It's not selfish to love yourself, take care of yourself, and make your happiness a priority. It's necessary.” Talk to yourself like you would to someone you love

Family dynamics can be tricky. We know, after all, that no family is perfect. Familial relationships can be some of the best support systems, but they can also be difficult and harmful if you’re dealing with toxic family members. When you’ve committed to living a life of radical self-love, having strategies for how to respond to and even heal your toxic family relationships is imperative

Shame is easily confused with guilt, which is directly related to a specific wrong or sin you’ve committed. Guilt is a feeling of responsibility or remorse (regret) that moves you toward God, compelling you to repent (confess and turn from your sin). But shame is a more profound, painful feeling about yourself because of your sinful actions or someone else’s sinful actions toward you (typically abuse). With guilt, you feel bad about what you did, but with shame, you feel bad about yourself or who you are. This tends to pull you away from God rather than propelling you toward Him.

Vulnerability is what connects us to other human beings. It is when we “expose” something about ourselves whether that be experiences, emotions, feelings, and/or behaviors to another person in order to form a connection and learn about each other. Since childhood, many men are taught vulnerability equals weakness and therefore men are not supposed to be vulnerable. It can also be difficult to be vulnerable as there might be a fear of feeling embarrassed or being hurt by someone’s response. Vulnerability is actually a strength. In order to be a strong and healthy individual, vulnerability must take place with the people that you have built trust with. In doing so, one strengthens relationships, improves mental health, and improves the quality of life.  Being vulnerable also takes away the pressure that you have to do this on your own

Everyone has fears – that doesn’t mean there’s anything seriously wrong. But if your fears prevent you from doing things that you truly want to do, then you have a real problem. And, of course, the more that important areas of your life are affected, the more of a problem you have. Fortunately, big or small, you don’t have to be a victim of them.

Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful part of us

If we place our trust in other people, we will be disappointed. If we place our trust in ourselves, we will be disappointed. If we place our trust in things money can buy, we will be disappointed. The only lasting confidence comes from placing our trust in God.

Letting go doesn't mean that you don't care.  It's just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself

Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.

As you breathe right now,  another takes his last.  So stop complaining and learn to live with what you have.

We don't need to become desperate. if overwhelming problems appear in our life, we need to stop struggling we tread water for a bit, until our equilibrium returns. then we go back to floating peacefully. relax, breathe & go with the flow -Khoe/human

A person can speak many words a minute and several thousand in an hour. You can imagine how many words an average person speaks in a day! And some estimates are that women speak twice as many words a day as men. We could fill a library in a lifetime! If we did, what would the titles of those books be? The tongue has a powerful influence on others.

Gratitude is a warm feeling of thankfulness towards the world, or towards specific individuals. The person who feels gratitude is thankful for what they have, and does not constantly seek more
