No one can camp out in your head unless you let them.

I doubt – too much. And it is a poison, but perhaps a necessary evil.

Perhaps doubt is the pause we need to get to the right finish line…:)
Thoughtful words for the day!

Well said. Negativity can be contagious.

Oh yesss!! I hear ya, Belinda! Doubt can cripple our minds… at the same time, it can even urge us into something constructive…
It’s okay if it’s the latter.. but otherwise, it’s just toooo scary…

I really like the way you have laid it all out in your poem, my dear friend… very nice!

“camping out in my head” I love that, however, I was actually thinking of another person (one who instigates doubt)…either way, a wonderful, tight write & one shot ~

Hi Belinda,
I love this and think you wrote it just for me. Do our doubts now each other? I think they’re best friends. I’m sending mine to the same campground.

No. I don’t like people telling me why not. I think that they mean well, but I want encouragement and good positive vibes too. I liked your poem. It really speaks to how I feel about well meaning negativeness.

Love the metaphors. Doubt hits us all, typically when we need it the least.
