eventually true -quote reflections by (me!) sandra, topps, writeousmom.com
where this quote came from? who said it originally? but, decades ago, i appreciated it enough to type it out, use a pretty font on quality paper; trim it with fancy scrapbook scissors and thumb-tack it on the bulletin board of my then office [magtimeframes era, lets call it]
and despite many moves; and storage time, etc.; i still have it.
what i reflect on when i come across it... is just how long it takes before it's true:
that what you find in your mind is what YOU put there..
because books, tv/pharmaceutical commercials, mass media.. social media.. 'influencers' magazines.. billboards.. salespeople.. news programs... cartoons...
movie-makers, teachers, parents, siblings, podcasts.. on and on..
a lot of what is initially in our minds is intentionally placed there by others
but what progress we each make! when we start to exercise self- control; self-governing; what we do allow and don't allow in our minds
becoming conscious of.. recognizing and managing.. and honoring...
i am ever aware now; avoiding bad and putting good; weeding out bad; planting good..
romans 12:2 selah! /this is my new favorite word!
