As part of the human condition we have within us the strength and the fortitude to cleanse our mind of such harmful thoughts. We alone must make the choice. It becomes a matter of exercising our God-given will.
In full awareness of that which threatens our peace of mind, no less our very soul, we must move our thought process to a higher plane: to thoughts of love, of ourself and others and, of that which affords our greatest comfort, thoughts of God’s love.
It is no less important to bear in mind that our past, no matter its many twists and turns, is both the foundation and cornerstone of the present. It is on this alone that we must build our life, that we may come to know peace within, and love our fellowman.

“… unwelcome thoughts of the past intruding upon the present.”
Recently I was driving past the Alexander Calhoun Library. Saturdays long ago, Mom and I often found ourselves there. I would select the many mystery books that she loved to read. Sadness welled up inside of me that this could never be so again. I silently said, ‘I love you mom,’ and the spell was broken. blw

"Beautiful, this meant a lot to me, I was wondering if my sadness will ever truly leave... and this helped."
