[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 754582, member: 23706"] Feelings are not facts. Just because we feel a certain way, such as we are ugly, doesn't mean we are. Same with a feeling that we failed as a parent. Our feeling does not make it true. Our ego minds are meaner to us than any outside person. Don't believe that how you feel makes the feeling the absolute way it is. This is something I recently learned. It shocked me and I resisted it. But when I tested it, I realized it's true! Now I work hard to quiet that nasty voice in my head that tells me that I am no good and that also reminds me of what I did wrong in the past and makes scary predictions about the future. My quieter mind has been a blessing. There are many books on how to quiet the nasty voice that chats gloom and doom to us. Eckhart Tolle is just one person who teaches how to silence the ego mind. He is on YouTube and wrote many wonderful books. Highly recommend! Blessings to all. [/QUOTE]
