~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Hey hi hello! Welcome to the second iteration of...

~ The Toolshed ~

I decided to make a new thread, as the first one had errors and phantom pages, and was getting quite long! You can still find all the amazing pics, inspiring quotes, and uplifting messages of the first Toolshed here.

What is the Toolshed? Ain't a place to hang your hammer! Hehe this is a space where we can share the things that have helped us in our recovery. Tools, coping skills, inspiring ideas, and messages of hope and growth, is what this space is all about!!

You can stay connected and up to date on this space by favouriting, or by subscribing to the thread - head to the top of the page, and find the three dots to the right of the thread title (next to the star), click, and from the drop down menu you can 'favourite' or 'subscribe' - and clicking the star itself will also favourite the thread for you.

Favourite threads are then always available in your favourites list which should appear on the right hand side of most forums pages - or you can go to your profile and scroll down to the 'Favourites' section under your recent posts.

If you subscribe, it means that you will get a notification every time someone posts something new in the thread. So up to you if you simply want it to be always accessible, or if you want all the updates, or both!

I invite anyone who wishes to contribute to do so! It doesn't have to be pictures, it can be discussion, questions, videos, whatever you like! So without further ado, here's my latest batch!

An Eternal Discovery

Nothing is greater
than living truthfully true.
Let each day reveal again
the quiet miracle of existence.
For truth holds us
even when we stumble.
Its love sustains us
even when we grow weary,
Our souls will remain
for we are children of truth.
Born into life,
tested by suffering,
shaped by experience,
yet never without worth.
For the worth of you
cannot be measured by gold,
nor weighed against the wealth of the earth.
For your value is much greater.
Greater than riches.
Greater than power.
Greater than all the treasures
of this passing world.
For someone who lives in truth
lives a life destined to be eternal.
This is where the final discovery remains:
Your life has meaning.
Your suffering is never unseen.
Your truth still lives on
preserving you you.
For true self
is worth more
than all the wealth
of the universe
to the truth
that's you!

Fighting the demons spooking through my mind.

Can in an instant to any reason turn me blind.

Where tormenting lies scream darkness at me.

And my body trembles the tensions i must see.

Only my truth can ground me my reality within.

For i know not heeding the barrage has me win.

Thank you @MissGremlin I really needed to see the first one today. I have been having a headache in the same spot since Thursday night and it is really starting to annoy me, so i think it's time to take some pain killers.

I think mine is a post traumatic headache. Hopefully it will pass soon enough.

Thank you @DownMoreThanUp I needed to read the 2nd one and listen to this song today. I am struggling today, but I won't give in to it. I think I will watch a few episodes of some crime show to keep my mind busy today.
