What if I think that I am wearing myself out from taking care of you and your daily health issues but really I am doing this for myself because I am getting something out of this situation. (acknowledgment or distraction from dealing with my own issues)?  What if you would be OK if I began to back off and begin tending to myself?  What if I am making myself the victim?

What if I and everyone around me can tell how I am thinking by what I am creating?

What if nothing is going right in my day and angry people are in my face and the rest of them are all stupid and I get a flat tire and my gas is low? Can I be having a happy mind or am I thinking dark thoughts?

What if everyone I encounter has an upbeat happy smile and life is flowing effortlessly? Are not they a mirror of my inner joyfilled thoughts?

What if either way, glad or mad, is perfect as we are all humans but joy is easier?
