Wednesday's Child

Okay, this has nothing to do with children (okay, not directly) but it IS Wednesday. Does anyone even remember "Wednesday's Child" besides me? Anyhow, I just had some "stolen" thoughts that I wanted to write down here.

I need to face the truth in my life. Ignoring the truth never changes the truth. Truth perpetuates itself regardless of our willingness to face it. Can you answer these questions?

- What do you appreciate most about yourself?
- What are you doing best right now in your life?
- What needs your attention?
- What deserves more energy and focus?

We increase the power in our lives when we honestly appreciate what we're doing right and face what we're doing wrong. Life is a constant series of adjustments. Healthy people are willing to make necessary changes to improve the quality of their lives.

Very true - although you have to be ready to face the truth - it can't be forced.

That sounds like a good way to look at life, I wish I had time to do that.

I agree, through repentance and to follow god is my way to self improvement.

Yes, I remember "Wednesday's Child" on the evening news. Was it channel 4? The melody and the production of the jingle overall were unbearable. Whenever I heard that woman wailing about W's C I just turned the channel.

AS for your questions... very provocative, though perhaps not as provocative as Kona Shelley's profile picture:

- What do you appreciate most about yourself?
-- Consistent body temperature, low blood pressure, taught facial skin -- hard to choose among those.

- What are you doing best right now in your life?
-- Parenting.

- What needs your attention?

-- Selfing.

- What deserves more energy and focus?

-- Physical fitness; writing as hobby and potential source of income; closet and drawer tidiness; NOT NECESSARILY IN THAT ORDER!
