Flying HIGH

I'm on the run....

Flying today. (the plane is flying- I'll be sitting and watching TV, drinking Ginger ale, playing on my I Pad)- ok   ... And praying  that  Angels will be assisting our plane safely to our destination.

A lot of effort to "deal" with the stress of being 30,0000 ft above the earth

Stress can play havoc on our minds and bodies.

Thank God we have the privilege of "faith" to assist in stressful situations.
 
Effects of stress ...
... On your body... On your thoughts and feelings... On your behavior

The choice of what we "do" with our stress is  purely our choice -

Every thing ( almost) is our choice and free will -


Funny how we "act" like victims!



We have a choice to take any situation and grow from it and become a better person or make it worse and making explode into something bigger than it needs to be

I choose healthy thoughts !  When something comes into my mind that is unhealthy (negative, self bashing, probably not true)  I have a choice what I do with that thought.

I certainly don't want to give it audience, entertain it and the "file it away".

Take any situation and hold it up to the light!

 Exam my heart, learn grow and seek peace

When dealing with Stress:
We can try to handle it with
  our mind - good luck - but maybe...
  our body - you'll probably need/ drugs/ alcohol or FOOD
  our Spiritual being -  "now....Thats the way!!! No doubt, it's the only way I've found
      that is 100% successful every time.

Ciao- time to board and enjoy the ride- my challenge of faith. I'm ready!!




Salute!  To your Health and Wellness


PS -  Back on the ground...... happy to report a great smooth  flight -  despite the pilot preparing us with "fasten your seat belts, we're expecting some bumps on the way out".  Yikes... but Miracles happen and it was an amazing smooth flight!  Yea!
