i enjoy my own company

                        You're always alone, but you're only lonely if you don't like the person you're alone with.

I treasure all of the experiences i've had in my life

                        Each experience in your life was absolutely necessary on order to have gotten you to the next place, and until this very moment.

I'm in charge of my emotions; they're not in charge of me

                    you control your emotions.  you do not have to explode with anger whenever someone else decides to behave in an angry or vindictive way.

i forgive everyone, including myself

                                Forgiveness is the most powerful thing you can do for yourself on the spiritual path.  if you can't learn to forgive, you can forget about getting to higher levels of awareness.

i appreciate all that i am and all that i have

                              stop focusing on what you do not have, and shift your consciousness to an appreciation for all that you are and all that you do have.

i create the world that i live in

                no one can create negativity or stress within you.  only you can do that by virtue of how you process your world.

i work on my problems, and then i release them

                                anything that bothers you is only a problem within.  only you can experience it and only you can correct it.

i only allow that which is good into my life

                        no one can depress you.  no one can make you anxious.  no one can hurt your feelings.  no one can make you anything other than what you allow inside.

my destiny is mine to control

                when you acquire enough inner peace and feel really positive about yourself, it's almost impossible for you to be controlled and manipulated by anybody else.

i release the need to determine how things "should" be

                if you are suffering in your life right now, this condition is tied up with some kind of attachment to how things "should" be going.

i am patient and loving with my fearful thoughts

                  be patient and loving with every fearful thought.  Practice observing your fears as a witness, and you'll see them dissolve.

true happiness resides within me

                most people are searching for happiness outside of themselves.  that's a fundemental  mistake.  Happiness is something that you are -

and it comes from the way that you think.

The Gossip

                        this person avoids intimacy by talking about other behind their backs.  the gossip gets energy from relaying stories, opinions, and the latest scoop.  by gossiping about others, he/she creates a lack of safety in his/her relationships.
