"I used to". I have to be really careful with those words!!
If I think, "I used to" and reflect on happy memories,with gratitude for having been able to enjoy good times and/or "do my share", then I'm good. If I think, "I used to" and determine to figure out if there's a new and different way of doing those things, or similar things, then I'm good. If I think, "I used to" and get caught in a vortex of self-pity, then I'm toast. I tend to do all of the above, sometimes all in the same day. Sometimes all in the same mental conversation. Sometimes I don't know when to put on the brakes before the first two skid into the third. Oh well. Just pondering.

Yup. And I always seem to have at least one foot in it.

Your name says it all, "Blessings2You." You have to look beyond your current self. I'm an admirer of yours, dear. Keep a stiff upper chin!

In Remembrance
|
I avoid thinking those evil words. I try to think of only the good things that have happened in my life. The bad thoughts creep in, though, and then I shake them out of my head, saying "I can't hear you" 10 times. By that time I forget what I was thinking anyway..
 Blessings..
