~* Odyssey of
the Mind *~
Ah
Ha the 'mind'...To explore the 'mind' would be to understand it...You think?...Ones mind
is really the most complicated yet simple thing that each one of us possess... Confusing
huh?...Becca thinks so...the 'mind' never ceases to amaze me...
Do you realize that you can actually remember what happened to you when you were a baby?... Well you can...It's stored in the back part of your 'mind', which is called your memory...I know your probably thinking -- Becca I can’t remember that far back...Am I right?...Well maybe when your awake, as you are right now, you can’t think that far back, but believe me it is possible for you to...Everything we have ever done or has ever happened to us throughout our lives, our 'mind' does remember even if we don't...Sometimes a traumatic event could have happened to us that we would like to just forget, and too help us cope with that experience our 'mind' obliges us by doing just that and blocking out what we don’t want to remember, but the 'mind' will forever remember that bad day in our life...Whatever you are doing right now at this very moment, your mind is recording it down forever to be stored in the farthest recesses of your 'mind'... Even when you are fast asleep, your mind continues to think, now is that weird or what?... sometimes in that thinking process that our 'mind' goes through while we are at rest, it comes off as a dream, even a daydream the mind plays a major role in...Have you ever wanted something so bad that you found yourself thinking of that 24/7 and then eventually a dream will ensue?...I know I have...I called this page 'Odyssey of the Mind' so for those of you wondering why Becca chose that title well I will tell you then you'll know just a little bit more about the 'Becca mind' (what scientists have wanted to explore for years *lol*...The word ODYSSEY means journey -- so -- this is a journey into the mind... Becca views life as a journey or odyssey if you will, so picture this in 'your minds eye'...When you were born...your journey began...So ultimately, from that day forward, you start writing 'Your Book of Life'...Each new day you have -- a page written in your book...Each month -- a sub-chapter…and…Each year -- a chapter is finished...Now the difference, the big difference between your book of life and a book that you choose to write is this...Once the page, sub-chapter, or/and chapter have been written you can never go back and re-write that page and/or chapter again -- so whatever you have done will forever remain in your book... See how this is similar to the 'mind' in a way?...The mind records all events in our lives which may or may not be played back at a later date and that is our book...Most of these views that I have been sharing with you all I have only learned the last 2 years of my life...So even though the beginning of my 'life's book' may not be so good to read, I can’t dwell on what I will never be able to change, for me I need to dwell on the present and my future cause those pages haven’t been written yet...and I...only Becca...Can make the difference in those future pages & chapters of 'My Book of Life'...Just like everyone of you out there reading this can never change what your past is but can only grow and hopefully learn from it and start writing good memories in the pages of your book...memories that even after all is said and done, others will remember you with a smile *ss*...So even though our minds are very complexed things...They really don’t have to be...Don't let your mind ruin your present and future though...the 'mind' can do this by living in the past...So sad you think?...The 'mind' can make or break a person...I think that’s why throughout most of my life I tried to never look back...I really don’t want to look back at my past way to depressing, and so I always live for today and I will never stop wanting the dream of a better future for myself... Always live today, like it would be your last... So as I leave you to think about what you just read on this page... Let me leave you with this thought... * * * * * * * * * * "Dreaming, the mind's main function, goes on 24-hours a day. Since each of us is living a dream of our own creation, we have the power to change a dream of hell into one of heaven simply by changing our beliefs and dreaming a different dream."-- Don Miguel Ruiz * * * * * * * * * * |
