until a few days ago, I hadn't the slightest inclination to share my thoughts with the outside world. Well, not through a blog that is. In some respects, I have always wanted to share my thoughts with anyone who'd listen, but writing songs was the only way I felt comfortable.Not sure how long I will stick with this blogging business, so for now I'll just take it one blog at a time.
So what is this matrix I speak of ?(after all, it is what this blog is supposed to be about, right?!) The matrix is everywhere, no just kidding, I'm not Morpheus. But yeah, in a sense it is something that pervades all that I experience. To me, it is simply the way my mind attempts to color everything that happens, the way it judges/categorizes people around me, and most importantly it is the way my mind sees and judges me. To the extent that I buy into these notions, I will eventually start to see "proof" that these ideas are valid ones. Something as simple as a quick thought that says "watch out, I'm gonna drop the glass" more often than not becomes reality. When anything "bad" happens to you, try to reflect on what was going on through your mind the moment before it happened. It may be so subtle that you can hardly notice, but with practice, you may start to notice little things and become more aware. The other problem lies in the fact that sometimes shit happens that you swear was completely out of your control. Sometimes it may be so (herein lies a mystery of life) but way more often than not, I find that I was thinking something that I can definitely connect to whatever occurs. Life has really turned into an experiment for me, I may be totally off on all of this, but I have seen enough to want to investigate further. Perhaps I'll start sharing day to day experiences and going over what I was thinking/feeling at those moments. Perhaps if you are reading this you'd like to share your thoughts with me. With much love and kindness, I hope you find your way to a life of peace.
yes, I have definitely noticed that we are creating our reality with our thoughts. It's so hard to catch the thoughts before we create something silly though.....because there are so many thoughts swimming through our minds at all times and we're usually not paying attention to most of them....so it's difficult to realize that we really can be responsible for creating some accident because we were unconsciously worried about something bad happening with our finances or some relationship, just before it happened. But if we are at least open to the idea that we may be creating our every day reality with our thoughts we could choose to stay on top of them and just think better feeling thoughts :)
