Check Yourself 


“Don't let your sins turn into bad habits.” - Saint Teresa of Avila


None of us are immune from having a bad moment. Nearly every single one of us has said or done something in the heat of the moment that we shouldn’t have. That’s part of the human experience. 


But what’s also part of the human experience is our capacity to learn and grow. We have the capacity to recognize our cycles and patterns of behavior and alter them. 


We already know some environments aren’t healthy for us. Let’s stop putting ourselves in them. Sometimes we have to establish firm boundaries or step away entirely from friends and family that are not supportive of our health or growth. 


We don’t have to keep doing the same things the same way. When something triggers our anger and pain, we can pause, take a deep breath and choose a different response. 


We have to check ourselves in order to change ourselves. 


I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
