Probably a bad choice to make my point. Because now you are focusing on so many different things. But maybe accidentally it was the perfect choice. What are you thinking?

Did you choose what you are thinking about? Of course you did. And everything about who you are brought you to making that choice. Are you thinking, “what a slut” or your a guy, “thats hot” or “I would never wear that”. Funny this could be a post I did not intend to create.

Indulge my ADD for a moment. The point I wanted to make in this post was that we choose what we think about just as certainly as we choose what to wear. This probably only applies to women. But women get it. They can pull a red or a blue dress out of their closet as easily as they can pull a positive or a negative thought out of their brain to focus on.

What if your closet is merely a metaphor for you mind? So you can pull out a happy thought or choose a shitty thought out of the closet of your mind.

That was the point I wanted to make but by my choice of photos I landed up opening up this post to a plethora of other thoughts and ideas. So it was probably a bad choice. Because the simple point of choosing what we think is no different then choosing what to wear for the day.

That particular dress probably brings up a whole bunch of thoughts unrelated to simple choice. But maybe its the perfect metaphor for how difficult it is to make a simple choice. Because we have a plethora of memories connected to everything we see and hear all day long that will hijack our brains.

So yes, you get to choose. No its not always simple and straight forward. It often is. And when it isnt you still need to make choices that work for you. I still maintain happy thoughts are a choice as is red or blue dresses. Think about what you want to wear or think today. PS assuming you have all meditated, why not let the negative thought simply pass, as you do when you are meditating and focus on something positive, something you are grateful for, or something that gives you joy.
