My negative self talk is actually out of control today. No amounts of rational and hopeful wish are able to quench these weary thoughts. The seconds I woke up this morning, these bad guys were already there, occupied lots of spaces in my already cramped head, uninvited, stubbornly, shamelessly unwilling to go.
I ask them please not today.. well not tomorrow either, as a matter of fact, please don’t come ever again. I don’t like you. But alas, when these things have set their claws on my mind then the only thing I can do is to accept it.

I’m tired of fighting, I am tired of pushing harder…

So today I am making an agreement with  worry and fear and shame… All of them… I want a peaceful day… I know you will come and go as you please…I respect you. You will come with me wherever I go, but you stay quiet by my side. I have a lot of things to do and I won’t let you make any decisions for me…

Dear sadness, let’s have a seat, you can have tea with me… But stay quiet.
