Thoughts are seeds that are planted in the minds and have tremendous power to make or break. They are shaped by life experiences. It is an awareness of the thoughts and attitude that mold the core of every life. Every few seconds these thoughts come in the mind, that is like a flurry of seeds. Thoughts about everything and nothing, some are inevitable, some the heart commands and some that the mind's logic fight over the heart's feelings. Whatever they are, it is your attitude, but at times it does rule over the heart. You can either plant that seed of thought or let go of it in the wind.
These little seeds of thought, may have fear, bitterness, hatred, self pity, love, hope or goodness; rebelling thoughts that question everything, or a passing thought that goes off as it comes, but some linger on and on. Most focus on the thoughts of hurt, struggle or insecurity and unknowingly you start watering it to grow. Left to grow it becomes an obsession, phobia or a dark cloud that can leave you in a mess. That seedling you planted continues sprouting, it affects your thought process and life; and the tiny seed of thought becomes an ugly plant that overtakes everything, controlling you.
These seeds of thought can grow and make you prisoner like a poisonous ivy. Thoughts can be such that you have a garden full of beautiful plants of peace, love, joy, hope and beauty and blossom in your speech, actions and attitudes. But is it as easy as that? Yes and no is the answer. When the mind and body are at logger heads, it is a huge task to streamline the seed of thoughts. The negative responses around can affect the strength of mind when the body is not in your control. Thoughts are also gems of healing. Discard the seeds of thought that could harm you and water the good ones, which are good or bad ones again is a confusion for everyone.
Every moment of life seeds of thoughts are being planted, the question is if it is a beautiful flora from a steady stream of positive thought seeds or thorny, tangled ivy? Though each thought is small and insignificant, it could grow into something substantial. I learnt the hard way from experience that it is better to let go of the thoughts in the wind than let it grow. When pain is a constant companion of life and life itself is a daily battle, it is better to scatter the seeds of thought in the wind than let it become a poisonous ivy that can victimize you.
