Thoughts are Things
I hold it true that thoughts are things;
They're endowed with bodies and breath and wings;
And that we send them forth to fill
The world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought
Speeds forth to earth's remotest spot,
Leaving its blessings or its woes
Like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future thought by thought,
For good or ill, yet know it not.
Yet, so the universe was wrought.
Thought is another name for fate;
Choose, then, thy destiny and wait,
For love brings love and hate brings hate.---Henry Van Dyke

Why Do We Hurt Those We Love Most And How To Stop This
Ineke Van Lint writes in her interesting article Why Do We Hurt Those We Love Most And How To Stop This, the following opening statements:"You love each other but can’t manage to communicate without arguing, fighting and ending up exhausted, each one in his corner, trying to lick his wounds and thinking of how to protect one self against a new attack. And in spite of that…you love each other? How is this possible? Why do people hurt most those they love?How come we can’t express our love? How come we are full of good intentions but when it comes to reality we find ourselves again shouting and blaming the other one. And then that monster of guilt jumps out of nowhere to our throat to strangle us once again.How to stop this infernal behavior?" To see more of what Ineke Van Lint has to say about this go to http://www.article-database.com/article334.htmlThis seems to be a problem in many relationships and in my opinion I see it most in relationships that have some issues with codependency. If you see yourself hurting someone you love over and over or you feel that you are being hurt over and over by someone who claims to love you, then please read the article. Once again it is located at http://www.article-database.com/article334.htmlIf you have comments about what is discussed in the article please come back here and leave a comment or comments.
