And step out the back door and take a breath fresh air and look at the beautiful sunrise and meditate positive thoughts sometimes by what I listen to,or what I read,or sometimes even by what I smell. But am intentional at feeding my soul with good things. Cause it won't fill its self naturally with good things.
