At times, I need to be reminded of my self-defeating
ruminations, or as expressed in the Affirmative
Thought below, "incantations of hopelessness,"
a sort of mental, negative, phlegm that,
in unguarded reflection, I mull over, the shards
of past moments, usually well-worn reminders
of darker times, failures, foibles, guilt, even shame,
or just the should of, could of, would of reflections
of missed or mishandled opportunities.
Do I know better than to fall prey to this sort
of hopeless reflection? Yes, I do, yet I still
need to be diligent to either disrupt, dispute,
distract, or release and move on.
Whatever technique we use to interrupt these
incantations of hopelessness, we must make
a concerted effort to work on recognizing our
personal, self-defeating memes, taking action
to weed and release each in turn.
Today, let us stay diligent, replacing this
negative phlegm with clarity, hope, and
positivity.
RELEASE AND REFRESH
Release today whatever is no longer worthy
or of pertinent value, that fails to support
your cause or case, knowing that as
the released is let go, a space, a void appears
requiring gentle filling, a re-envisioning,
a pouring into, a completion.
Release all that is worn, threadbare, what has
been used, wrung out; the shards of a past
moment, now unbecoming or out of step with
a more abundant vision of a fuller imagining,
a flourishing existence of a magnificence
now erupting.
Release the words and ideas that hold you
in place, stiff, incapable of great actions,
of worthy utterance, the thoughts
of limitations, lack, or critical appraisal –
clearing these lies, falsehoods, and
incantations of hopelessness, replacing
instead with gems of hope, capability,
of soaring potential in full bloom.
