The Devil's Baptism

The name "devil" carries such negative connotations that merely thinking about it has a detrimental effect. So, I'm renaming it "Leave Me in Peace".

The Devil's Baptism

The name "devil" carries such negative connotations that merely thinking about it has a detrimental effect.

So, from today, I'm no longer calling you "devil". Instead, you are "Leave Me in Peace".

"Leave Me in Peace" is actually my daily goal: simply to remain at peace throughout the day. I am making you my objective.

No negative distractions, staying focused on my tasks, serving people, serving life, and moving forward positively and productively. Day by day.

So, from now on, everything negative — whether feelings, thoughts, or whatever else — is associated with the name "Leave Me in Peace".

Leave me in peace, that's your new task, and that's enough words for you for now.

Amen
