We choose our thoughts. We choose to acquiesce to the feedback we receive from others, feedback that may not serve us well; we choose to remain stuck on past hurts; we choose to worry about the future. This is cause for rejoicing! If we can choose these unhelpful thoughts, we can also choose helpful ones. ~ Karen Casey, Change Your Mind and Your Life Will Follow, p. 103
Hooray for misery.
Hooray for the downs,
for the setbacks,
for the duh days.
Hooray for the steps
seemingly backward,
but we don't go back,
can't go back, thought
sometimes we go wrong,
but it's a new wrong.
Hooray for the downs,

Hooray for the steps
seemingly backward,
but we don't go back,
can't go back, thought
sometimes we go wrong,
but it's a new wrong.
Hooray for missteps
for they guide our steps,
our hearts, our will
to the next right step,
to realizing again
I'm powerless,
it's not my fault
I can't pull myself out.

Hooray for wrong decisions
illuminating the right road.
