Thought Of The Day - Hidden

Thought Of The Day - Hidden

Termites can do devastating damage to a home, all without being seen. We can look at a house that appears to be the picture of perfection, only to discover upon closer inspection that it is being eaten away by those destructive wood-eating creatures. That's also what it's like to harbor a fear or guilt or a painful emotion that we don't face and deal with. It may not be obvious to outsiders, but if something big is weighing on our minds now, then we need to let it out. Talk to a friend. Talk to a spiritual advisor. Seek advice from a therapist. Do whatever we have to do to move beyond our problem, and we'll feel immensely lighter and happier.

Thought of The Day - Faith

Thought of The Day - Faith

Doctors come under a lot of pressure to issue prescriptions. Sometimes, there may be no need at all for a treatment. The problem may be likely to clear itself up if it is left alone. But the patient might feel disappointed if they have to leave the surgery empty- handed. And doctors are not allowed to prescribe a placebo, even though placebos have been scientifically proven to be effective in many cases. There are several ways in which we could heal a wound or cure a fear. We can apply any solution we like, as long as we put our faith in it.

Thought of the Day - Darkest before dawn

Thought of the Day - Darkest before dawn

It's always darkest before the dawn. That's very simple wisdom, but we may be interpreting it in the wrong way. Because we have dealt with a difficulty that has seemed to get progressively worse, we may be starting to think that we haven't hit bottom yet. We may fear that something will continue to spiral downward - but it won't. We have already seen the worst of a certain situation in our lives, and it can only get better from here. We need to keep our chin up! The dawn is coming!
