But... I bring you this short rant on toxicity in your life. Its rampant Toxic people, toxic thoughts, toxic lifestyle. Yet, we choose to let all these things constantly plague our lives.
We continue to let toxic people bring us down, make us feel inferior and quite frankly ruin our days. I do this all the time. I just keep giving and trying, yet I know these people will let me down--its inevitable. Yet, I, the maker of my destiny, choose to let them in again and again. I would like to just stop. Whoa there nelly and all that jazz. But its so hard. How do you draw a fine line between loving your neighbor, your family, your friends, and doing what is best for your emotional and spiritual well-being?
Toxic thoughts. Yeah, we all do it. I was reminded of how many times I let thoughts about my body or life plan affect my life. I catch myself looking at myself in the mirror, sucking in, pulling "fat" back, pretty much tearing myself down because I'm not good enough for the cover of a well airbrushed People or Glamour. No one looks like that in real life people! Yet, I do it. I fill my head with body image hoopla and whispers of her hair looks better than mine, my hips are so wide, man why can't I look like that.
Toxicity. Cleanse yourself of thoughts and people who tear you down. Remove these thoughts from your heard. Take a deep breath of reality and see that though it may be hard to cut those people lose, it will ultimately make you better in the end. Do not enable them. Do not enable your own mind to control you with thoughts that are ridiculous. Do not live a toxic life.
