WHAT ARE YOU FILLED WITH?

I recall reading that a man from Virginia Beach filed a law suit

against his hospital. He opted to have surgery in order to lose

weight. So he had his stomach stapled -- a procedure that

reduced the size of his stomach so he couldn't eat as much.



A couple of days after surgery he sneaked down the hospital

corridors to the kitchen. There he raided the refrigerator and

ate so much that his staples burst.



The law suit? He claimed it was all the hospital's fault. They

should have locked the refrigerator. No, I don't know how the

suit came out...just the staples.



If the first sin was eating the forbidden fruit, then the second

was trying to excuse it. "It's not my fault! SHE made me do it!"



Wonderful things can happen when we decide to be responsible for

everything we put into mouths, everything we put into our minds

and everything we put into our hearts.



Fill your body with the right foods and it will perform well.



Fill your mind with learning and it will not stagnate.



Fill your mind with optimistic attitudes and you will always have

hope.



Fill your heart with courage and you will be able to face life

with confidence.



Fill your heart with love and you'll never be alone.



Fill every day will plenty of gratitude and you will always be

happy.



Only you can decide how to fill up your life.



Albert Ellis has said, "The best years of your life are the ones

in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame

them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize

that you control your own destiny."



Only you can choose what goes into your life. Fill up your mind,

your body and your heart with the very best, and the result can

be no less than magnificent.

:1: :1: a good post ((((Tammy)))) thank's.:42:

Very recently when going through a grief phase for my upcoming surgery and future loss of wrist movement I was temporarily overcome with internal anger; I wanted someone to blame!!! and I wanted to spit venom....hey there is no-one to blame, not even self what is is, and Cai' serra serra!!....I talked it through, prayed on it and YES, let it go. No more internal anger....how I now cope with the situation is my problem, no-one else can live it for me....so I am working on staying focused on the benefits not the losses, and there is pain before gain!!!!!

I am very grateful to have been able to move out of the blame game on this as I feel much calmer and accepting of the situation :29: and I'm sure I could have turned it into something rather ugly that could have well given cause for emotional relapse.:frown:
