So today is an amazing day I got to learn about my brain and I got to overcome some of the monkey brain and I got to move forward. That makes it amazing. I mean so many times people want their amazing days to be without issues to be without trouble to be without problems, but you know what, life is not rigged that way. Life has problems, in life you encounter troubles. It is amazing, when you overcome them that's what makes life truly worth living. You have so many abilities. You have the ability to choose how you're going to feel, if you are going to get angry and give in to your temper or if you're going to feel upset about things that are happening to you. All of those are within your control. You have the ability to change what you feel and how you think and that is what is so cool about this life. I am so grateful that I have learned that I can change how I feel. Of all the lessons that I have learned I think that is the one that means the most to me because that has made the most difference in my life. Now, have I made mistakes, of course my kids will attest to that. My kids have grown up with me showing my frustration, my anger, my temper, all the time and they have because of that had to learn to deal with their problems. Because I have passed some of those things onto them. So we do have those problems and we can overcome them. I was talking to a friend of mine today, my friend. He's gone through some trauma in his life, there is no doubt and because of that trauma he has problems, and that they get in his way. He feels, put upon, he feels like he is being abused and that's not uncommon when you have experienced trauma. Trauma can cause that but the issue is it doesn't help him feel better it doesn't make a positive difference in his life. This makes it so that he is continually experiencing the same anger, temper and negative emotions. He feels like he is depressed, overwhelmed, and often frightened. But all of those feelings are things that come and they can be chosen. It can be accepted or these feelings can be rejected and we can change how we feel. That is what separates us from animals, we have the option of choosing and it's just a short time. In fact you have only about a millisecond but your thoughts go faster than that and you can in that millisecond choose whether you're going to feel that emotion that's coming over you or whether you're going to change that. I was able to change those I knew that anger when it welled up inside of me that frustration when it started overcoming me. I knew those were coming and I could choose for just a split second to either feel those or to not feel them. I can choose to feel happy, accepted, and loved. Now do I still have problems? Of course I do, are there still times when I don't feel happy, accepted, and loved. There are times that my family and friends get to experience me not reacting with love and acceptance. I’m sorry when I react that way. I do want you to know that you can have an amazing life. You get to choose it that is your birthright. I hope that you will start to choose differently and that you will choose happiness, acceptance and love.
