QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

A TIME FOR EVERYTHING
There is a time for everything, and a
season for every activity under the sun.
A time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time for decay and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones, a time to gather,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

Yeah .... well ... that sucks ..... ❣

Under some stigma here for a different reason .... but that will stay until we get a diagnosis over my WH .... and even then I'm sure I'm going to be considered the cause of it for some reason by some in my circles .... :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Hard to tune them out .... but I find if I pack my life full of the sort of distractions that appeal to me, there's much less room in my head to concentrate on people who don't belong in there ....🎼☕️🌿🐬🌷

Hope that helps .... try to put something beatiful in your life for every slight or ill-spoken word, even if it's just a new, funny image on your phone ..... and then you will have another great image to send to someone else on a down day ..... 😏💕

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope will do that it's a good idea. feel like taking up boxing thou if my hands were in better shape. humor can help thou. sometimes I think I should give up on the ideal of good treatment and just accept what I can get. blah blah

Nah ..... @hope77 ..... let them give up on dissing you ..... keep rising above it all ..... then check out the view over their heads that other rise-a overs are enjoying too .... might make some new friends along that path .....

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

what makes a human being. nice to deal with? we have ears we have feelings are we not there or are we just a target to them because they think we are weak or is it they don't matter we just blame it on their illness. I want a revolution to stop this rot it seems to be everywhere. EMPOWER PEOPLE. Let's GET OUT OF THE SHADOWS.

The inability to have compassion towards others in their circumstances is an illness of te soul @hope77 ....

Try to have compassion on them, but protect yourself from their illness too, by raising a shield of politeness and being as kind as you can ....

That's my thought anyway .... hope it helps you ....

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

Thanks, @Faith-and-Hope. But I feel you can't fight the lack of compassion with compassion You have to call them out. It's a rocky road but I'd rather go down fighting then just go down.

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND

I hear you @hope77 .... an I know it's not just about compassion .....

Once our situation is out in the open, we will become advocates for change an awareness, just because it's a natural extension of the struggle against something so little understood, that is "hidden in plain sight" ....

Taking courage from your stance .... stay gentle with yourself in the process .... it's an important part of advocacy ....

I'll try, feel I'm running out of time on this earth and more than ready for a change. Got to go and do some exercise now. Thank you for talking to me. I hope you have a peaceful day.
