How many veterans expect to feel lonely and depresssed and exploited. Frozen in time, nothing can change, nothing can go right. These beliefs have been reinforced by bad experiences, many brought on by self-defeating behaviors. Some of us build walls and bridges and look for rivers to fit them. Some bridges we never cross. Help often comes in the most unlikely places but because our rigid minds are set on how it must be done, we refuse help. Closed minds and hearts do not receive. We refuse to see the bright side because we don't want to give up our view of what could happen. Ga to gv, stand still, and listen to the small voice within and pray for wisdom which is abundant and forthcoming if we listen with an open heart. Coffee's on any takers?
