It occurred to me one day when I was writing how powerful my pencil is. You see my pencil is capable of writing something spiteful, funny, wise, dramatic, or sad. In each case the words it writes can change my mood. And at the same time, my mood can be changed by the words I write!
For example, if I am writing something depressive, if I began to change the words to a more cheerful topic, that could be quite magical. I could even elaborate and write what I would do now that I was feeling uplifted. If I was stressed, I could write how it would be for me to handle the stressful situation in a state of calmness. If I was berating myself and I wrote how I was being kind to myself instead, wouldn’t that make me feel better?
I always have a choice; I can use my pencil to make myself feel bad or use it in an empowering way to guide my emotions towards a helpful direction.
I could liken my pencil to my thoughts. If my thoughts are unhelpful for the situation and causing me to feel bad, I could stop that train of thoughts and imagine picking up my pencil and what words do I need to write to make the situation better? And how will I do that? And then how will I feel? I could have several coloured pencils and choose the colour I want, such as right now I would like to feel peaceful, so I’ll use my green pencil, yellow for brightness, orange for joy! Let your pencil flow with goodness……
