Think on these things
Something to do, something to look
forward to, have always been basic
to our happiness. When we are in-
terested, we are interesting - which
opens the way to what we really
want to do.
So many people are working at
jobs simply because it feeds and
cloths and shelters, but does nothing
to satisfy a need for creativity.
When the work gets to be just a
necessity adn no longer chanllenges
or sparks interest, the cheating
begins. There are all kinds of
diversions to take the mind off of
what must be done - diversions that
end up in hot water. It helps to
examine closely the direction, the
reason, the probable outcome, and
make immediate adjustments.
Our attention goes quickly to a
weak point in our lives the way blood
flows to a wound. If we are
inadequate anywhere, we dwell on

it. It grows out of proportion and we
are drawn away from the healing,
creative, berautiful, side of who we
are.
But when we look for something
constructive, something to build into
our spirits, life and work and the
peace of mind that stimulates us to
newness will take over. Then, the
fear will be gone.
