Good morning everyone and happy Tuesday. We are all familiar with the basic rules of life. Don't steal, cheat or kill. The rules that aren't universal are the ones that are relegated to our individual families. Clean your room on Tuesdays, no TV watching until after dinner, etc. As adults we choose which rules to extend to our own families and which ones to leave out.
What we also pass down from generation to generation are not only rules but a mind set. That's a tough one to shake and usually requires multiple therapy sessions. If you have grown up hearing "you can't" more than you can, chances are these words are stuck in your mind like gum on the bottom of a shoe.
Today's quote is, "The one who told you you can't was told way before you." Did you ever stop to think that maybe you weren't the only ones who heard this perennial chorus of negativity? How many times have you heard the words of your parents come straight out of your mouth as if you had no control over them.
There is a tendency to repeat what we despised. Instead of anger, try to be more understanding. Those words so easily formed on your lips were said to your parents and I can guarantee they weren't happy hearing them either.
Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! ~Love, Amy
