OK people. Listen Up. I just friggin' figured out the answers to life's problems.
Let's all agree that Happiness is a Choice. Meaning that happiness does not exist outside of us. We can not find happiness in anything outside of us. Right? Right.
So... when I feel a phsiological pain in my body.. which feels similar to staples pulsing through my veins.. this is uncomfortable. I am not happy. This happens to me ALL the time. I get physical urges for any kind of food that will produce a quick relief to my discomfort.
Has that brought me any kind of real happiness?
NO. IT HASN'T.
So if I say to myself... the answer does not lie outside of me. Then I can be certain that food is not really a fix at all.
I am empowered to know that with 100% accuracy that I can change how I feel by how I think.
I am not a victim to these urges. I can absolutely bring myself happiness from within. Relief from within.
Ha.... Life is so good.

Amen sister!
ReplyDeleteI never quite saw this... urge.. this need ... this discomfort as unhappiness before. So I dialogue myself.. what am I believing about this situation which is causing me to feel this way, which is triggering a physiological response? What am I believing? What am I believing... and if so.. is that what I want to continue to believe?
ReplyDeletePractice, practice, practice.
