“It is our mind,
and that alone,
imprisons us or sets us free.”
Dilgo Khyentse Rimpoche
Our minds are precious machines which like computers often only repeat what is put into them. Whatever story you’ve evolved in your mind, often plays out in your life. What you concentrate on, appears many times and you may wonder why. Are you attracting negativity into your life by drawing it with the words, thoughts and actions you choose? Do you harbor resentments, refuse forgiveness or hold the victim story in your head so powerfully that you continue in a cycle of sadness and ugliness in your life?
Do you long to break free from the prison, the sadness and the negativity?
You can.
That’s the best thing about your mind. You can change the channel by focusing on the power of positivity! You can allow your mind to imprison you with the story you have in your head about your life, your past, your list of depressing experiences or you can change the way you look at your life and find the positivity.
So let’s begin today ~ take my hand and let’s change that channel to the one you want to live!
Shine On!

Yes ~ thanks for visiting here!
You’re right, Yvonne.
As we think, so we act. But, conversely, as we act, so we think. May we think and act with virtue.

It’s funny, my youngest is in a social skills group, and their big focus is on “thinking before doing.” I think this is right on, thanks for sharing!
Ah yes, Z’s class is right up my alley! Think before doing/saying! Thanks for being here with me on this journey! ♥
Let’s hold hands and set ourselves free, Yvonne! Time for a new story. Doesn’t seem possible there could be a better one, but here’s to faith and hope, my friend.
Oh Vicki, yes, let’s hold hands! Thanks for reaching out ~ a new improved story of fulfillment of life’s purpose spreading love and laughter and holding hands when there are tears. But always shining on! xo
