Dieting, The Lap Band vs. Spiritual Healing
Wednesday, August 19th, 2009Welcome back!

Patty & Bougainvillas
I think that life boils down to deciding to focus on the inside or focus on the outside.
I believe that the individuals who focus on the outside live in cool looking houses, drive smashingly awesome and powerful cars, have dynamite smiles, are built like brick shithouses, wear clothing with designer labels, are accepted by other members of society. They still have all the things left to resolve that people who focus on the inside are currently working on.
Things like eliminating self-doubt in all it’s ugly forms; feeling good about yourself regardless of the words thrown your way; trying to prove things by purely mental means, so that you know that you are Cause Itself and can use it at will; working to unfold your virtue set and use it appropriately; being fully consciousness.
I know it’s not for everyone. It’s the path of the Master’s. It’s not for namby-pamby’s or the weak-kneed. It’s my path. It was graciously bestowed on me when my chubby baby body got nicknamed Patty Fatty and I believed it to be true. I know how I got here. Do you? Do you know what your one weak link is and how you can turn it into your salvation as I did?
Will I always be fat? As long as I continue to think it as habitually as I do now, most likely I will. Would I ever have the lap band surgery to get rid of this big body? Never! For me, it spits in the face of all that I know I am capable of. It says “I can’t” to things mental, and this girl just cannot go there. Is it okay for others? Well of course, and there is a mental way. It’s just not all that easy. It takes courage, perseverance, single-mindedness. It does result in permanent healing, though, so I think it’s worth every effort I can conjure.
Hugs to you and love,
Pat
