Thinking.... From Daily Meditations For People Who (May) Worry Too Much
"You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you" ~~~~~~~~James Allen
Rarely do we realize that our thoughts are just that....our thoughts. Because we think them, we often fail to see that they are not necessarily reality. They are our view of the reality at that moment....nothing less.....nothing more. Then, if we take the original thought and embellish it, elaborate on it, and build on it, we begin to construct a house of cards which we can move into and start decorating.
Often, our minds are our worst enemies. Or, we let them be. With little effort at all we can think ourselves into a complete tizzy. We cannot actually live in the future...but...our minds can and do.
It's important to remember that our thoughts aren't real. They are processes that we can observe, find interesting, and then, let go of if we wish.
We can think ourselves in or out of anything. It's the living that's important.
