Have you seen the previews for the new movie Freedom Writers? I just saw it this morning so I had to post about it. It seems as though it will be a good one to see for positive reinforcment. Hillary Swank plays a real-life teacher who turned the lives of her young students around who live in a very hostile, negative environment by having them write a journal.
In one clip, the teacher tells them that they don't have to live their future life based on their past experiences. Remember yesteday's post; how important it is to "jealously guard your thoughts? This teacher encouraged her students to do just that; really focus on possibilities and not the circumstances surrounding them. And, their circumstances were very tough. Instead of continually pulling past experiences out of their mental archives and staying stuck there for the rest of their lives believing that there was no hope, they were encouraged to begin anew and make possiblities their new realities each and every day.
You can change things around. You can literally rewrite a new life for yourself. Speak what is good; think what is good. Every word has an inner life force, sometimes called the hidden power of our words which may be constructive or destructive. The words that we inwardly feel are the words that act as turning points in our life.
If you express feelings and words of doubt, failure, and loss, it leads to feelings of fear which forms tendencies of those things you don't want. On the other hand, when your expressions verbally or through your feelings are towards health, happiness, power, and success, you will move towards those things, and, in like manner, create them in a measure making yourself free from fear and limitations. You'll then experience true FREEDOM.
If you see this new movie, let me know what you think about it. I'd love to hear from you.
Live in the joy & possibilities of today,
Donna
