Keep in mind no one is exactly like another. There is not such thing as NORMAL. Its important to remember that we all have skills, strengths, qualities, talents and resources that have enabled you to survive and thrive this far. Take some time and list out these qualities, strengths and talents and focus on them instead of our faults.

Because we are hearing about the many ways we are hurtful towards others, this feeling work can hopefully encourage us to be kind and look for all the ways others are being kind too.

Today I have taken the time to notice how livened up I am after short conversations I get to have with the different people. Taking the time to notice makes me realize I feel lively a good portion of my day. Hmmmmm

I am very fortunate there are many things in my life that revitalize me. I encourage you to look for as many things that liven up your life because it will help us deal with the events that pull us down.

My Friday reflection on hope

06/16/2022

Hope is learned. To learn hopefulness we need relationships that are characterized by boundaries, consistency and support. When we are given opportunities to struggle, we learn that we can believe in ourselves and our abilities.

We experience hope when we are able to set realistic goals (I know where I want to go), we have different ideas of how to achieve this goal and we have belief in ourselves. We can say to ourselves “I can do this”

Monday's feeling word or experience is Hope. Hope is something we need like air. To live without hope is to risk suffocating on hopelessness and despair or crushed by the belief that there is no way out of what is holding us back. Hope is a cognitive (thinking) process which emotions play a role.

Hope is a function of struggle.
