Pebbles of rain are falling on my window. I hear raindrops. I’ve always liked the sound of rain. Now more than ever since we have had a long drought that is still not over.
I read somewhere that rain is God’s way of cleaning, the stepping stones, the concrete and it makes the grass glisten. It reminds me of the beauty of nature
Yes raindrops are falling. The will put me into a peaceful sleep. All’s right with the heavens and I will embrace sweet dreams/
Knock knock. Open the door. I’m the window of your mind.
Let me in. I’ve come to tell you something.
I’ve listened to the negative thoughts about yourself long enough.
Some people would like those negative thoughts to stay in your mind.
I am other thoughts in the window of your mind.
Don”t let the negative thoughts stay there.
I am other thoughts in the window of your mind.
They say you can achieve. You can be happy. You can move on from negativity.
Come on. Try it. Let me in. knock knock
Ever see the lady with the perfect house, perfect makeup and family. She seems to have it all together.
I tried being like that once. Sticking to a schedule, always madeup and hair done. Well not always, but I tried.
I tried it with the kid. Soon I noticed my child wasn’t her old self. She didn’t play or laugh like she used to. I didn’t like that. I liked her freer. I noticed something about me too. I felt like a robot and probably came off like that to others with my journey in trying to achieve perfectionism. I didn’t stop what I was doing to give time to my family when they needed me. In fact I don’t think my family liked the new me.
I had lost part of me and the fun out of just being me in life. So out went the new and in with the new me. Sometimes we have to gain perpespective in life. We have to look at ourselves. We may not be like that lady or person we admire but have qualities that person doesn’t. Sometimes we may start to dislike something in ourselves that is a truly great quality. Don’t compare yourselves to others. Just work for the better you or you may be fine just as you are.
