Have you had that particular day when you tried to do something but your mind yells: No! Then your head is actively listing every valid reason why you shouldn’t do such and such, but you do it anyway.

Today is that particular day for me. I was in such a so so mood today, my brain started to give every reason why today will be a bad day. But somehow I chose to ignore these negative vibes and surprisingly I managed to cheerfully walk through the day. Even when a package from an online shop arrives with some disappointing items, I just laugh at it. Damn… I thought I was already strong enough from this online market, I thought I could look at what I needed, bought it and voila, I’m done. What a small surprise, I was dead wrong. 🙄

My point is, there are days where thoughts are just that… Thoughts. I dunno why we are so hardwired to think about anything negative. I read that our brain is evolving by constantly scanning the danger around us, not the beauty around us. Safety is paramount, while the beauty of those prairie flowers… Well not so much.

So today I learned that I am not my thoughts. I can think differently from what I actually do. Interesting… Very interesting.
