I believe God created us to be us not Brad Pitt or Warren Buffett. I think the zen of life is in being you. I believe God created us to be us not Brad Pitt or Warren Buffett.

Some people just keep forgiving themselves and trying to live down the guilt of doing wrong. That is dangerous. It’s ok to be unique but not unique enough to become a serial killer.

All of us are unique and we need to appreciate that. Not judging others helps keep our head light. It's also important to try to stay responsible and right. I have always taken time for self introspection and solitude. The company of nature can be a big eye-opener sometimes. It’s important to be happy with who you are.

It comes from being a good person within and without, connecting with nature and animals in a positive way, taking time for self introspection, being a responsible person and not being curious about the weird or self-indulgent things that other people do. Being happy in your own skin is half the psychological wellness. Call me an oldie but I believe that being happy and contented comes from very few things.

I read those three steps above and of course it all make sense. Those are the ways to happiness and health. Have affection for others, be compassionate as it bodes compassion from others, and act to make things happen. It seems so simple, yet so hard to enact when it comes right down to it. Why is that? Is it because we all strive to make things more difficult than they really have to be?

Martin Thu, 12 Feb 2009 05:54:52 +0000 http://www.goodtherapy.org/custom/blog/?p=1617#comment-15211 The Dalai Lama has said: 1. Be a good human being, a warm-hearted affectionate person. 2. A compassionate state of mind brings inner peace, and therefore a healthy body. 3. Change only takes place through action. Not through prayer or meditation, but through action. Many good things come to us simply by "being" a good person. Good actions give us good things to say about ourselves that "write over" the old dyfunctional tapes in our minds and hearts.

Is that the point where you have to seek therapy in order to work all of that out so that you can find a way to be kind to yourself once again?
