I am an ardent believer that everywhere we go, a trace of us remains, and that everything we are exposed to, like it or not, leaves its mark on us. Think of the many echoes of words in our heads from something we’ve heard. Good or bad, it’s there. Knowing this, where did those words or ideas come from? This is where the idea of healthy choices comes in. Are we putting ourselves in places where we will encounter good words or bad words, exposing our sponge-like minds to violence and hate? When we encounter non-Christian ideas and words, what do we do with it? Negative words and attitudes are contagious, just as much as positive ones. It’s like stepping in the paint. You might not be aware of it, but it sticks to you. Like it or not, you leave traces of it behind. Your body is temporary. Your soul is eternal. Finding information on nutrition for the soul is the easy part. The difficulty comes in thoroughly digesting it and making it a part of you. This comes with practice and dedication just like any healthy diet.
