We like to think we are in charge of our lives.
We like to think we are in control of all we think, we say and do.
But we are not.
After all, who would choose to be unhappy?
Very often, things outside of our control really affect us, causing us to feel bad.
Sometimes- really bad.
Maybe the country goes to war.
Or someone breaks your heart.
Or someone in the family treated you badly.
You would never choose to feel that way.
Do you remember me when I was suicidal?
I really didn’t want to feel that way.
I said, ‘I never wanted this…’
But it wasn’t my fault.
I was trapped in the vicious habits of fear, poor self-image and addiction.
I just needed a helping hand.
We all just need a helping hand.
