Seren-hoopitup-ity (Affirmations)

I love it when things just come to me. It’s like my mind and heart have had the chance to process, percolate and peace-ify, so that thoughts just come. YAY!

Several years ago I got three of my favorite affirmations that way.

  1. It may (or may not) be true
  2. I may be able to handle this
  3. It may be good enough

Qualifications for each one of them, because, sometimes it seems like an absolute affirmation is too hard to swallow.

  1. It may (or may not) be true: When someone pays you a compliment, it’s easy to dismiss it out of hand, forthright. But maybe, just maybe, it’s true. Likewise, when someone insults you, maybe what they say is not true.
  2. This one’s just hoping the best for oneself and
  3. This one’s learning to be content with what one has.

These affirmations came as a package, bundled together—all pretty and ready for wear. Nice.

The latest one that occurred to me, thanks to a conversation I was having with my psychiatrist is: “Life takes finesse”! Amen to that. Amen.
