Mental Hygiene: Are you clean enough?

Emotional sobriety is a real thing I cannot even begin to think about where I would be today without it. I had the liberty of being involved in a celebration tonight that opened my eyes. I had a friend share with me what it was like to have spiritual sobriety or mental hygiene if you wanna call it in comparison to just being basically a dry addict.

I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to be unhappy every single day of my life. Especially now because I’m paying attention to where my mind status. Main state is but a reflection of your thoughts, and how your thoughts affect you. Are used to allow my thoughts to affect me in such a negative ways that I would react and allow my mind to control what my actions did and how they came out on a regular basis.

Today with a lot of practice and a lot of self evaluation, determination, and accountability I am able to see myself in a different way. I was telling my partner that I try to see her as a human before I look at her as my wife. I try to see my father, mother and family as humans before they’re my family. I do this rightfully because even though they’re my family that does not indoctrinate them into some magical place of being perfect. They are in definitely still human, and are susceptible to making mistakes just like me.

And hindsight I really wish I would’ve started to see how this was in the past, however I don’t think that mistakes happen very often in life and I think that things play out the way they’re just supposed to, even through the heartbreak and all the negative emotions that follow some of my best lessons were taught through suffering and learning to establish a good basis of mental hygiene during calamity.

To close this blog post I’m going to say that I don’t understand why the word calamity has calm in it, I need to look up the etymology of the word I suppose. Also I’m going to have a right size review on movies once a week, as well as A weekly post on Mondays. Primarily because Mondays are most manic for me, and I need to talk about it more often than I need to talk about anything else. I’m not sure when I’m going to post the reviews once a week it might depend on how I feel, I usually write more when I feel worse. I’m usually out with the dog or the family when I feel OK.

Until next time be well
