Entertaining thoughts
My Photo of light - Location: Banhwich Cafe, Lincoln, Nebraska
Isn’t it funny to feel like the real you is back when you haven’t gone anywhere?
Inside of each of us is a multitude of voices and we decide which to listen to and when. But which of the voices are we? And who is it that notices these voices?
In my experience, getting space from the voices in my head causes a kinder happier me. My heart opens allowing an opening for creativity to pour forth.
Peace can be found in the silent stillness in my head. This can be obtained even while not in meditation with practice. The first step for me is to begin to notice the voice with the awareness the voice is not me. Then I ask myself hears the voice, who is listening?
Thoughts appear and then the experience. I only experience those thoughts I give credence to. An example is when we notice something and then even if it could be deemed insignificant we keep thinking of it and worrying about it. We give it the importance that is not even deserved.
If we take the same thought and when it first comes up disregard it. The thought is gone and has no importance. This is a good point to remember before some thought takes hold because in my experience once it does shedding the thought is much harder.
Thoughts are like visitors be careful who you welcome into your home.

Thoughts are like visitors be careful who you welcome into your home, before you know it they are haunting you like crazy!
I know been there and done that many times.. now I am like go away. lol
Go away Haha did it work?
Only if done quickly and with no hesitation.
Change is (should) be the only constant. Thoughts come and go and they should, letting them go on their path brings freedom. Thank you for such a lovely read.
great comment .. hey, thanks sometimes these subjects are kind of deep for some people.
I always enjoy your posts.
Well said, thoughts are like seeds; if you plant them and pay attention to them they will grow. So be careful which seeds you plant in your mind is what I tell myself and my kids.
I agree...that is a whole post to itself you are right! Thanks for adding to the conversation.
Someone once told me that sometimes it is not your thoughts
That you picked it up from someone else because we are all connected
So taking that break from the noise to identify the thoughts sounds like a plan
Love that last line
Not all visitors are welcome 🙃
This is a great read, definitely food for thought
Thank you 😊
thanks
sometimes other people do affect our thinking.. I agree

true... the heart is very powerful
Indeed, put those thoughts back on the conveyor belt.
I really do think thoughts in our head are from other people, some even other dimensions.
great way to put it. the conveyor belt ..
