Negetive Thoughts

So a couple of weeks ago I attended my Stake Relief Society Womens Conference. It was the BEST!!!!!
Hilary Weeks spoke. Can I just say that I was overcome by the spirit and was crying so hard that I couldn't compose myself. It wasn't so much what she spoke about it was her music. I love music and sometimes certain songs can just really express how I am feeling. To bad I couldn't write my own words and become a writer.
  Anyways, Hilary spoke on the Power of Thoughts.
Did you know that a person can have over 300 negative thoughts a DAY!!! I believe that. I had one of those mornings. I was probably up to 1000. After I wrote all my neg thoughts I decided to write all my positive. It helped so much. Hilary talked about how she wanted to see if this 300 was correct so she bought herself a "clicker" ( you know one of those counters that counts people going in and out of events)
 She clicked  for a week instead of a day. By the end of the week she was feeling horrible, crappy, and not happy with life. She realized that it had to do with all her negative thoughts. So for the next week she clicked for every positive thought she had. by the end of the week she had 3 thousand or more.  So her message was focus on the positive  in our lives. Our thoughts are our actions. Our thoughts make us who we are.  A friend of Hilary's found out that her father only had a few days to live. He wasn't a active member and never really said I love you to his kids. So this friend took a clicker to her dad and challenged him to click it every time someone told him that they loved him or every time he told someone he loved them. He died within a couple of days. When this friend went to her parents home her mother met her at the door and showed her the clicker. He had clicked it 6 times before he passed. Her mother said it had changed him those last days of his life.  I would love to do this for my dad. He always says yep when you tell him that you love him. I would just love it for him to see how much we love him. I will have to remember this for him when it's his last days.
This pregnancy is messing with my emotions really, really bad!!! I cry at the drop of a hat anything can trigger it. But, then I can turn into a witch. I hate the emotional roller coaster. oh dear negative thoughts.... not good.
