the Infinite Monkey speaks: say something

Random brilliance from across the blogosphere…

.

Sometimes we can’t see what others see in us. Sometimes we take for granted that they know how we feel. Sometimes I have written to people who have been shocked and amazed at the beauty I find in them, and likewise I have been shocked and amazed that they hadn’t found it before. Because it seems so obvious. Because wonderful people should know that they are wonderful. Because, I have learned, we should be telling them.

the Infinite Monkey speaks: the stories I tell myself

Random brilliance from across the blogosphere…

.

I’ve been working hard lately at observing my thoughts and choosing to change the stories that I tell myself about my life and the things that happen to me.

…

Taking responsibility for myself, for my responses, for my actions is so much more powerful than getting stuck in the blame game. I am the only person that I have any control over, so optimizing my choices about what I do (and don’t do) matters.
