If there were a picture that screams to me it would be this one. Sitting all alone while my thoughts are screaming at me...are days and nights I'm all too familiar with.
And you know what? it's not just my thoughts that go through my head. I hear the words of my past, the painful taunts, put downs and other stones too...are hurled at me over and over again.
I'll be honest...sometimes I give them way too much weight and credit. I believe them. I live them. I let those words dictate how I feel about myself. I let them control me at times too. I let them win.
My thoughts and I have a little dance that we do and I will admit I let my thoughts lead for a little while. And sometimes...I let them lead far longer than I should.
I have to fight my thoughts to win back my life...to win back myself. I have to fight for me. I have to believe that I'm worthy of it and that I'm strong enough to fight. I have to believe. I have to hope. I have to.
