NEGATIVITY
Ephesians 4:31-32 "Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with the malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as
God in Christ forgave you."
Please do not let negativity consume you or overpower you!! Sometimes it is really hard to do. When the energy around you gets so bad, then just walk away from it or avoid giving your attention to the people whose thoughts and energy are so negative. It is their problem, not yours. If you make a connection with someone and it is not what you really want, this connection will stay with you until you decide to remove it or let it go. Letting go certainly does not mean that you forget what is happening, but you just let go of the situation and not let it consume you. Who is it hurting? Probably not the person who caused the problem as much as you yourself. Become aware of your own energy and bring it back into balance. Regain your own power, your own actions, and make the choice to remove that which is not beneficial to you. Take back and control what you do have power over, use your thoughts and ideas to better your own life. As you grow stronger on the inside, there is almost nothing on the outside that can control your inner peace. Do not allow other people to control you.
Remember that as you mature and grow stronger, you might change your values, especially when they are about your time, your health, or your relationships. Know that your own peace of mind is the most valuable. You are what you choose to be in that moment and what is best for your own higher good. Be true to yourself and remember that you are a very special person in so many ways.

September is the ninth month of the year in both the Julian and Gregorian calendars, the third of four months to have a length of 30 days, and the fourth of five months to have a length of fewer than 31 days. September in the Northern Hemisphere and March in the Southern Hemisphere are seasonally equivalent.
In the Northern hemisphere, the beginning of the meteorological autumn is on 1 September. In the Southern hemisphere, the beginning of the meteorological spring is on 1 September. September marks the beginning of the ecclesiastical year in the Eastern Orthodox Church. It is the start of the academic year in many countries of the northern hemisphere, in which children go back to school after the summer break, sometimes on the first day of the month.
September (from Latin septem, "seven") was originally the seventh of ten months in the oldest known Roman calendar, the calendar of Romulus c. 750 BC, with March (Latin Martius) the first month of the year until perhaps as late as 451 BC. After the calendar reform that added January and February to the beginning of the year, September became the ninth month but retained its name. It had 29 days until the Julian reform, which added a day.
