The power of our minds

I once watched the movie Sphere with Dustin Hoffman, Samuel Jackson, and Sharon Stone.  In this movie, which I am about to give away the plot like here, so if you haven't seen it, you will now hear something about it now.  The premise of the movie is there is this sphere at the bottom of the ocean that these researches find.  They somehow are able to get into this sphere and when they come out they are able to somehow conjure up the scariest things that they think of.  And it kills some of the people they are there with.  Now, at the end of the movie, they all agree that whatever it is, it doesn't exists at all, and they all made it up, and then, as if by some power, they all forget it.  Now, when I saw this movie, the question that came to my mind was, if we have the power within us to make all of our worst fears come true, what can we accomplish when we set our minds to doing something great?

I have watched the movie The Secret, and as silly as some may find it, I didn't.  I found it to be inspirational to me.  Not because of why Thomas thinks it silly, but, because I believe that we, as humans, have the power within our selves, to make all of our dreams, good and bad become our reality.  Hmmmm......  I find it so interesting that we can control our situations with just the thoughts we have everyday.  And, I'm sure it takes a bit of practice to get it down, but, think of the possibilities.  I try so hard not to think of the things that scare me for fear that my fears may come to pass.  I don't even dare tell anyone what these fears are because, I don't want to put any energy, good or bad into them.  I do try to stay positive.  I tend to overreact and be somewhat irrational at times, but, in those times, I have to step back and take a moment to let my mind be quieted.  For me, in these quiet times, I am able to deal with these things and let them go.  I see myself getting exactly what I want.  And even if it doesn't happen when I think it should, for me, it always happens.  I always get what I want. I know that sounds a lot arrogant, but, it's true.  If I can put the right kind of energy into getting this thing, then I have no doubt that it will come to pass. 

There is another movie, that has just been done called The Cure Is and it goes into what we can manifest in our bodies by our thoughts.  There are many who can say that they have succumbed to the bad health issues that they have, but, this was a story about those who did not accept what they were told.  They took a different approach to their own healing.  And another question, why do we automatically assume the worst, why not find the ones who beat it, and find out what they did.  For, if they did nothing more than just the power of laughter, meditation, love and positive thinking, why would anyone ever do anything else?  Now, don't get me wrong, they had a lot of doctors and treatments and medications, but when given a death sentence they didn't give up.  That's when they started using their minds.  So, don't think I am going to tell you that you can cure all sorts of aliments just from your mind, I would strongly suggest seeing your primary care physician before you take it into your own hands.

Today, after being sad and feeling sorry for myself, I still did what I had to do, but then, I stopped and really let my mind go for about 20 minutes.  I listened to my new meditation music, and I saw the things that I needed to let go, and I let them go.  I saw the things that I wanted, and I saw myself in that situation.  I have some more that I need to think on, but, for now, I am going to sit back and watch the amazing power of my own mind at work.  I will get to where I want to be, I just have to be in that energy, and right now, I am not quite there, but, almost... maybe later this week for sure :)
