Every minute of every day, thoughts pop into your head. About what’s happening. About other people. About yourself. About what you see. About what you feel.
What are you supposed to do with all these thoughts? Well, the one thing you’re not supposed to do is act on them immediately.
All of life is opinion. Stuff happens and we make snap judgments. Which is why we have to slow down, and confirm that everything we think and feel is true.
Because most of it isn’t!
We’re not actually upset, we’re just hungry. We haven’t been wronged, it just looks like we have. There’s nothing actually to worry about, that’s just our anxiety talking. This situation isn’t “bad,” because just as easily we could see what’s “good” in it. Or maybe we don’t need to think anything at all, we can just turn off our thoughts.
Somethings I think about in the age of information overload…
