A Little Thought for the Day

A characteristic of a depressed spirit is an "overconcentration" on cares and concerns--an unwise wallowing in feelings of foreboding. What a difference it would make if, instead, we took account of our strengths, raise our eyes off the ground, and gave ourselves credit for how far we have already come and how much we have already achieved. Let us recognize and make use of our talents, abilities, skills, and capacity instead of allowing these traits to be BURIED through self-criticism, forgetfulness, and disuse. Let us name our blessings one by one.
