Progress

Progress!  It is slow at times, but I am choosing to focus on the fact that it is happening.  I have choices.  I can react to life in a way that serves me and those around me, or I can react in a toxic, painful, debilitating way.  My recent progress is in realizing that I have the choice.  Whatever life presents me is not good or bad, positive or negative, until I generate a thought about it.  Whatever I choose to think, ultimately determines my feelings, my actions and my results.  Healthy thoughts feel better.  I am happier.  I have control.  I can control how I think.  Feels pretty good.
