Reigning in on your thoughts


Aspiring to be mentally healthy is not something that comes naturally,you must constantly work at it. When you find yourself being snooty or gossipy and talking about others and saying things that you wish you had not said when later thought through, have a good talk with yourself.

Don't make excuses and try to save yourself from guilt, be truthful and suffer through with the discomfort of knowing you've wronged someone. As soon as possible get back with the person that you told that smear to and try to make demands. Let them know you had no right to say what you did and henceforth try to find something good to say about the maligned one.

What happens if the person is actually guilty of what you accused them of? If it's none of your business and it does not affect you personally let the judge and the jury take care of the matter. They will know how to get at the heart of the problem and they don't need you complicating matters.

Of course we're not saints but sinners, yet that doesn't mean we have to put ourselves above others and pretend we don't do most of things that they do. It means we are working on our mental health.
