Daily Thought for May 20

2012 May 20

Within a day of this you will feel better than you did when you started this day.  Why?  You are who controls your life...and you can set it up now to be better and better rather than whatever happens happens.  Why give over control of what you can easily be?

Loving Someone with Borderline Personality Disorder

2012 May 19

 

"Loving Someone with Borderline Personality Disorder: How to Keep Out-of-Control Emotions from Destroying Your Relationship" by Shari Y. Manning, PhD.  Great title for a book...or too scary to contemplate?  You decide, but this is an outstanding read for everyone who comes in contact with those who are often said to be "too emotional" and a lot worse.

Within you is a power so great you cannot kill it with strong drink or drugs, but you can humiliate the ego that follows it.  Be true to you and keep your lines of inner communication open to You, so you are never blue or sad about why you turned out this way and are in this life.

Tibetan Book of the Dead - The Great Liberation

2012 May 17

Buddha’s teaching of impermanence: that all things arise and fade away - all things? are temporary in nature... lights the way for a tradition in which the state of our minds in life affects the nature and quality of our experiences in death… Our true essence has never been born and can never die.  Out of a fear of the unknown, people have a hard time letting go of their suffering—preferring suffering, because it is familiar.

Daily Thought for May 17

Criticizing another is not helpful, unless that one contributes directly to your work or your living or your homelife.  If they do, then by all means let them know if you are disappointed...rather than acting indifferent to it and letting it build until you cannot handle it well and will rebel.
