Thoughts – Day 10

Everyone needs a safe place to live. Is your mind a safe place for you? Are you and your mind one the same thing or are you and your mind separate? In other words, are you your mind? Is your mind you? If your mind is not you, is your mind trustworthy? Is it a friend for you or is it sometimes like an enemy towards you? When your mind is not a safe place for you, where can you go? When your inner life is not your place of peace, what can you do? If your thoughts are not your friends, who can you listen to? Can anyone else help? Do others have the same problem? Do they openly talk about it or do they hide it? Do the people around you hide an inner life of fear, pain, and anger? Or, are they free? Have you ever seen someone who is free? Are you free?

Look at a small child. Do the same thoughts that control your mind control their mind? Who has more freedom in their inner life, you or a small child? You were once a small child also. What happened to your freedom within your inner self? Were you put into a mental jail? Are you stuck there? Do you want to be free? Do you want the freedom of a small child? Look at the birds. They face various weather conditions. They face various feeding and living conditions. They have adversaries. They suffer losses. Do they continue to sing? Do they continue to fly? Do the continue to enjoy their freedom? Can you?
