Attack problems with the intensity of the Sun, and understand The Miracle Inside My Mind!

In the last entry, I said that I am not my thoughts. This is a very important concept that allowed me to overcome powerful emotional scars. However, in chapter two I wrote: "The existential idea that only a thought that is wanted can exist in the mind proved valid..." In the end, I wanted my thoughts. In the end, I loved my thoughts regardless of how abhorrent and socially unacceptable they appeared.

Although you aren't your thoughts, you choose them. It may seem not so, and it did to me for years until I was finally able to reach the mountain top and see the truth! If you don't want your thoughts, it's okay, but understand that someday with greater understanding of yourself, you may see that, indeed, it's not the rejected thoughts that are the problem, but your reaction to them.

And so it is in the world! The most important thing isn't always the "big bad problem,"
but your decisions in relationship to it!

Improve yourself, improve the world!

About Me

My photo
I believe that I can speak about emotional trauma, especially PTSD, in a unique way and give voice to those who may find it difficult to articulate what it's like to be emotionally traumatized. I had the experience of being put in the hospital at the age of two due to being ill with encephalitis. Ironically, encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain, and it was my brain that I needed to use to escape the horrible things that would subsequently happen to me. I was severely emotionally damaged at the age of two by what I believe to be the EEG that the doctors gave me. They put wires on my head and weren't nice about it. The trauma from the hospital experience incubated in my mind until I was seventeen years old. It was at that time that things got ugly. Images and feelings from the hospital popped in and out of my mind. I developed techniques to stabilize my mental state and then to ultimately overcome the emotional trauma. I did this without going for help or talking to anyone. I only kept a journal, "My only friend." If you'd like to learn more, you can go to my website, THE MIRACLE INSIDE MY MIND.
