The most dangerous war....

The most dangerous war is the one within ourselves. The war against our thoughts and our emotions..it can be battle some days.

Would you agree with that? Have your thoughts ever waged a war against you? Have you ever waged war against your thoughts? Have you ever battled yourself? 

I have and I have the scars to prove it. They've healed now and I've learned how to do things differently, but they do remain as a reminder of where I've been. I feel stronger when I look at them now and I'm not ashamed anymore. I've battled myself and I've won.

We're human...and I think we have all waged a war against ourselves at one point or another. For some...the war is short and easily won...and for others? well it's not so easy. And sometimes...we can leave scars behind. We can hurt ourselves instead of helping ourselves...and that needs to change. We can only move forward when we learn how to love ourselves enough to do what we need to heal without hurting ourselves. You are worth it! (just in case you forgot) 

When your war is raging and you're fighting hard...don't believe everything you think okay? Instead of focusing on what you don't have...give thought to what you do have. When thoughts of how life changed...give thought to how it stayed the same. When you think of all you can't do...give thought to what you can do. What is in your control to change and what isn't? 

Challenge and change your thoughts so you can change the war from against you...to fighting for you. When the war is raging inside you...it's not the time to beat yourself up further for things you can't change. Please love yourself and be gentle...talk with support and encouragement to yourself...but do not beat yourself up further. End the war and please...

take good care of you
