Core issues from our childhood can give us a road map of how we operate in the world. For example, chaos and feeling like a victim can lead to anger and then feeling lost. We can use affirmative prayer to counteract that old belief and clear our consciousness, such as, "I release my belief in chaos. I release my belief in anger..." This helps us rediscover who we really are and who we are not!
Jill Conner Browne, in The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love says, "Life is too short and too long to spend it being miserable. Life may indeed be short but it is, for a fact, wide. It's high time we started settling for more!"
