sad or happy - choose by duncmacphun

Many of us are not happy about ourselves, something we have done or not done, or the way we react to other people. We keep recycling sad thoughts until they become what we are. We can break this cycle . . . we really can choose to be happy. For most people being happy is not difficult but it does require persistence to undo the habits of a life time. There are many simple techniques to promote happiness. Some of them you probably heard from your grandmother . . . but there are other, less obvious ways. The brain makes up about 2 percent of a human's body weight, uses 20% of the oxygen consumed by the body and . . . is often not under our control. Proof? Try counting slowly with your eyes closed in a quiet place. How far did you get before you lost count and started thinking about something else? Many people can't make it past ten. Drugs are not the answer. Why risk addiction while destroying your lungs and your brain with alcohol, nicotine (smoking tobacco or vaping), cannabis (marijuana), opium derived drugs like Oxycontin or other unnecessary and unhealthy chemicals? If you need to dispel a bad mood, use one or more meditation techniques, evolution's natural way to obtain happiness. There are external causes of unhappiness and these are discussed in later chapters. I appreciate, and will respond to, questions, comments, suggestions (and votes). Thanks for reading.

In Love With Blindfolds On by cjacks1124

I gave the best of myself to someone who didn't have anything to lose. I didn't know how to avoid my lover's toxic and abusive flames. My lover's twisted words were like a maze inside of my head that I couldn't escape. Sadly, my lover's actions hypnotized my thoughts and paralyzed my thinking. I learned the hard way that love isn't leaning in for a kiss, and a fist meets you halfway. Love isn't being a punching bag because someone decided they wanted to beat on you today. Love isn't saying I love you just because someone wants to keep you to themselves. I tried to be there for my lover, but I learned it is impossible to fix the broken pieces when the glass has shattered. There will always be pieces that are not repairable. However, I kept going right back to the person who I needed to walk away from. I was afraid, and I wasn't brave enough to wake up from this nightmare! I made the choice to suffer when life is meant to be lived and enjoyed. Will I find the courage to know my worth and know that I deserve better than the distasteful lies that are whispered in my ears? Will I have the strength to fight my insecurities? Will, I set myself free, or will I let my love be the death of me?

A novel of personal growth By Ms. B This story is about how I survived an abusive marriage for 10 years. How I eventually plucked up the courage to walk away and how I survived the months that followed. How I realised that I wasn't the only one who felt an obligation and loyalty to my abuser.

To all those women who are still going through it, I hope my story gives you some courage to walk away. Some courage to realise that you don't deserve it, you never deserved it. Courage to realise that there is life after abuse. There is happiness waiting for you. This book is also dedicated to my life lines, all the people in my inner circle who saved me. My friends, my colleagues, my family, my psychiatrist and my psychologist. This is my story.

Some don't have a reason. This is my story. My reason. My life. Join Aaron on a journey of discovery, love, loss, hope, and pain as he tries to navigate in a world built to tear him down.

Boundless Intentions by JudyDownUnder

When All That Is reaches out to guide you through difficult moments; when difficulties appear to be testing and perpetual, it is then with the learning behind you, reinforcing you with the strength of the Unseen, that you are bolstered. You have all you need. In fact, you've had it all the time. Once in a while, it is hard to separate between what our spirit versus our rationale is letting us know. Regularly, we disregard the words that are whispered through time and space. This is a recipe book of sorts that clarifies the life journey in a way that is easy to understand. The ingredients are keys provided to open entryways that have remained sealed throughout our life. A life without intention or a goal is a life that is most likely making a beeline to touch base at no place. I have clarified in detail, a portion of the some of the horrendous moments I met in my own life. Deeply in debt, due to an online home business debacle, in shocking credit card debt, I was reeling in disbelief after a business venture that had gone into a tailspin six months after purchase was the final straw. I found the road to recovery. Without a doubt, everybody who has ever messed up can modify their own particular future. You'll discover through the pages of this book how by voyaging a street with Boundless Intentions you will give yourself the enhanced life you deserve to live.

Depression, anxiety, EDs, and other mental health issues. by Esperanza5404

This story is about depression disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, personality disorders, other mental illnesses, self harm, suicide, bullying, and the stigma of mental illness. This book was written to help others and educate people. It is also written to let people know where/how they can get help. I put some of the links to the sites I used. I am NOT glorifying or romantizing any of this. This book is NOT used for diagnosis of any kind as I am not a mental health professional. So PLEASE DONT SELF DIAGNOSE YOURSELF WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS. This book contains sensitive content, so read at your own risk. #breakthestigmaofmentalillness

Strange Life by DeathQueen1211

This book is all about the strange things that've ever happened in life, all about the little moments and decisions that have led us to the people we are today. One little change in your life can make a huge impact later on down the road. Every lesson learned and every regret made has become a part of who we are and apart of who we grow to be. Everything happens for a reason and everything has a purpose in life. It's the beauty of life itself. Beauty is in everything that is around us but not everyone sees it. Not everyone can take a step back and just admire the beauty that life has to even offer. Don't take anything for granted, cause it may just be gone tomorrow. Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right and forget about the ones who don't. If you get a chance to change your life for the better, just take it and let it happen. Nobody says this life would be easy but we have to make the best out of what we can.
