[QUOTE="scent of cedar, post: 603867, member: 1721"] Oh, this is excellent, Recovering. Thank you so much for posting it for me. Such a simple phrase, so easy to remember ~ something to stop the spiral, whether into hope or toward the negative. Maybe yes, maybe no. The judgments we make aren't always truths. But by thinking them, they may become our false truths. That little phrase, "maybe yes, maybe no," stops the internal chatter. I am glad to have this tool, Recovering. difficult child comes home, today. The houseguest called last night from one of the airport terminals, just to let us know he had safely made it that far. He seemed happy, trusting, caring. Not at all the kind of action you would expect from someone practicing nefarious intent. Maybe yes, maybe no...right? I am going to post that on the fridge. Cedar In rereading this after I posted it, I realize that little phrase, "maybe yes, maybe no," is a perfect introduction to the skill of detachment. It cools the emotions. ***Most of us are quick to judge. And quick judgments are often wrong.*** Interesting to note that I am reading Brene Brown [U]Daring Greatly[/U] this morning. :O) [/QUOTE]
