The Cheapest, Best Thing You Can Do for Yourself

We all know money can’t buy happiness, or to state it as a positive, the best things in life are free.

But we deceive ourselves and chase blessedness away when the cheapest and best thing we can do for ourselves is right in front of us.

Capture your feelings on paper.

Let the really deep stuff boil to the top, your soul will take it from there.

Don’t hesitate as you write, just let the words flow. It doesn’t matter if your thoughts are dark or foreboding, just let them out into the light. Remember the things you write in such moments are secrets between you and your soul. They aren’t subject to anyone’s criticism, or to an editor’s red pen.

When you are finished writing, and you will know when that time has come, sit back, and reflect on the words you’ve scratched on the page.

And let your spirit do its job of healing.

You will be amazed how much better you will feel, and how expressing yourself, even to an audience of one, will energize you and make you want to repeat the exercise day after day.

And it won’t cost you one thin dime.
