#78: You Are More Than Your Thoughts.

Am I? What am I thinking anyway?

This sounds highly philosophical. I know.

Thoughts have the power to play funny games with our mind, especially when they are filled with worry.

We have all tried not to think for a moment only to realize how difficult it is.

It feels like an impossible task.

Does that mean we shouldn’t even try?

Trying to eliminate thoughts entirely is one strategy. Another approach would be not to take our mind as seriously as we often do. It is no different from any of our other relationships. They are not all the same. We might act on the advice of X while ignoring the well-meant suggestions of Y while not even developing any bad feelings.

I like the idea.

Accepting the notion that I cannot control my thoughts, it is up to me how I deal with and react to them.

So for today, I put my mind to rest. Enough thinking for today.

Good night!
