Chapter 2

All Is Not as It Seems

The health of the heart is not always as it may appear on the outside.

Behavior isn’t always an accurate indicator of what’s going on inside.

The Warning Signs

Dealing with symptoms with remedies without every dealing with the root problem is not the solution.

Root Problems

To get rid of the real problem we have to figure out what it actually is.

Continuing to apologize for words said or actions, only to just repeat them in the future.

Find the source, deal with the source, and you’ve dealth with the problem.

Oops!

Bad behavior or embarrassing outburts are not exceptions to what is in our hearts. They are actually a reflection of what is going on inside our hearts.

Truth Be Told

If our self imposed filters were removed we would be relentless about repairing our hearts.

Don’t Do As I Do

Don’t reflect blame of our heart or behavior. It’s not anyone, anything, devil included.

Friendly Fire

The people we are closest to, loved ones, spouses, children are always the ones to which our hearts expose themselves to.

We hurt most who we love the most.

There is a solution. We need to change. Change from the inside out. The culprit is always and will always be the heart. That is where the transformation must take place.
