Have you ever wondered about a life where all the thoughts in your head were out in the open? It would be nothing short of a disaster, trust me. May be that is why we are created as humans after all. It is funny the way we are all wired into this world, with a million thoughts constantly drifting past our tiny little minds. Yet so many times, they are left unexpressed, for better or for worse.
Thoughts are magical. Sometimes weird, other times just dark. Sometimes happy, other times crappy. Sometimes dangerous, other times mysterious. Sometimes healthy and sometimes otherwise. Striking the right balance between all these combinations is exactly what makes us who we are today. And that is why, the power to control these thoughts, lies within us.
May be it is a good thing after all. Because if we walked around with our thoughts etched on call out shapes, projecting every single one of them, I would predict a pretty ugly apocalypse, one that none of us would ever want to be a part of. The last thing we want is to be stuck on zombie land with people literally eating each others brains out. Not so pretty, definitely not.
The point is, thoughts are complex, just like our minds. They are a dynamic mix of emotions, a beautiful mystery that never gets solved. I often crib about just shutting down my brain and clearing the clutter. But the truth is, I have to come to realize that clutter is just a word we make up. All we got to do is, find the right balance and take control. Not so easy, but achievable. So for now, breathe, live and do not let the clutter in.
