Where Do Thoughts Come From?
Have you ever thought about where your thoughts come from? Was that thought even yours? Were you raised with certain beliefs that were your parents thoughts or perhaps a religious leader of your community planted a seed of belief into your thoughts? Is it possible that someones advertising got into your thoughts? We now know that marketing and advertising is a science all it's own, trying to get society to buy, wear, and use products that in many cases are really bad for us. So the question remains, where do your thoughts come from? Did something or someone have a huge impact on your life to encourage you to think the way that you think?
Honest thoughts involve reflection. As with all sports and learning of any kind, we need to practice, thinking for our selves and thinking from within.
If you want your thoughts to come from a place of wisdom, then you need to sit and be one with yourself. Be still, breath and let your feelings flow into your heart center. See how this really feels to you. Watch what thoughts come to your beautiful mind. When we practice finding our own thoughts and learn to think from within, it is only then that we truly know that our thoughts are our own.
Try this practice. It is so important to think for yourself and to honor your true thoughts and feelings.
