The Power of Words

words

I don’t think a greater truth has ever been uttered by Man.

“Words are the keys to the heart.” – Chinese proverb

“Speak when you are angry– and you will make the best speech you’ll ever regret.” – Laurence J. Peter (1919 – 1988)
Educator, author of The Peter Principle

“Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care, for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or evil.” – Siddhartha Gotoma or Buddha (563-483 B.C.)

There is so much truth to this. Would’nt life be so much easier (and beautiful) if all people were able to subscribe to such simple concepts instead of getting caught up in complication?.

I Love My Body

power-thought-cards

One of the Power Thought Cards that resonates the most with me is, “I love my body.” It has been challenging to love my body in the past year. Because it fails to “work”, I direct negative energy towards it rather than simply basking myself in LOVE. I DO love my body; honouring it in its limitations, yet challenging it. Last September, I could only hold myself in shoulder-stand against a wall. Now, I am perfectly at ease in this pose, having the muscular strength to gently lower myself into plow and lift my legs back up into the air. I am dedicated to my health and wellness, and a great deal of wellness is MENTAL.
