In the meantime, have compassion for whoever cannot so easily achieve that under the circumstances they have unintentionally attracted to themselves, especially if it is you.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/when-unhappy-thoughts-surface-have-replacement-thoughts-ready-to-pivot-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=When unhappy thoughts surface, have replacement thoughts ready to pivot to&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/when-unhappy-thoughts-surface-have-replacement-thoughts-ready-to-pivot-to\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/when-unhappy-thoughts-surface-have-replacement-thoughts-ready-to-pivot-to\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/when-unhappy-thoughts-surface-have-replacement-thoughts-ready-to-pivot-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=When%20unhappy%20thoughts%20surface,%20have%20replacement%20thoughts%20ready%20to%20pivot%20to&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/when-unhappy-thoughts-surface-have-replacement-thoughts-ready-to-pivot-to\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In response to a post about memories of childhood abuse, a friend wrote on Facebook \u201cI can create hell with my mind.
