This is a fun logic game we tried out in philosophy today. Don’t try and pick the ‘right’ answer, because there isn’t one. Just make sure you don’t contradict yourself 🙂

Whenever you have a negative thought about your body, run these four questions through your mind:

1. Is it true?
2. Can you absolutely know that it’s true?
3. How do you react when you believe that thought?
4. Who would you be without that thought?

Byron Katie developed this powerful set of questions — you can learn more about them & her technique here! (I only just found out about it & am really excited to get into it some more!)

Four Related Things

1. I am not subtle. I wear what I want. I am loud. I am bad at keeping most secrets. I like it this way, however it never really dawned on me before a friend pointed it out.

2. I think I’m forgetting how to use my words the way I like to. I want to write poetry again. I want double meanings and second thoughts that hit hours later. I want delicate references and concealed dreams. I need practice.

3. I got 91% on my English 12 provincial. Fantastic news, I love getting good grades.

4. Meaningful conversations have become more frequent lately. I appreciate this. I think I am getting better at putting feelings, thoughts and ideas in to words. I secretly thank my scholarship essays for this, and not-so-secretly thank my philosophy class.

Have I mentioned I like socks?
