Thoughts…

The mind does not stop. Even if you stare unblinkingly at the television and do not react when called upon, even if you try to stop your mind, and even if you go to sleep, the mind does not stop. So where do all these thoughts go? How many of your thoughts actually see the light of day through speech, writing, or action? I would wager that some of them ought not to ever be exposed, but sometimes, there are those thoughts that seem to dangerous to explore. Thoughts that you might try to hide or not inquire upon for fear of losing who or what you are or out of fear that we might lose the esteem of others. Those very thoughts are often what we need to visit most, yet are pressured into pushing them aside into the abyss of emptiness. I want to explore all thoughts and ideas that the mind touches upon. Some of them will be rather docile and tame. Others will be extreme and radical. Some will be commonplace, while others may be rare. Let’s not avoid our thoughts, let’s not cover them up out of fear, let’s explore the places that they take us and see if they are worth the ride.
