The crud I will use to affirm myself

I lose my way mentally so much. So often. I become in the moment 


and feel bereft of spirit for anything beyond the momentum of life.


i was sitting here looking at the elder and the bishop as Christmas music is playing on the tv. They were all immersed in their tablets and phones. I was wondering'is everyone at peace out there but me?'


I thought about the way I affirm myself 


in order to stay on track, taking care of myself, being smart about it, having values that are about protecting myself and my life. Keeping aware that I am someone to value rather than just an invisible set of eyes.


i take affirmation from different religions at time or at least see the wisdom in them.


Have a peaceful holiday season's night.

I’m coming to appreciate our shared and individual experiences both at one time.
I see my own need to take care of myself even in the face of faults and weaknesses that might set off alarms within me. I’m a grown man and I need to keep making my way in the world. Protect myself, provide for myself and so on.

Big hug Mark

It's great that you've found something that helps you through the rough moments

It's miserable to feel uncomfortable and alone in that discomfort

It takes a lot of courage to continue to branch out...Big hug...xo


I hope that you'll be home before long
