Controlling Thoughts

If you keep allowing the past thoughts to control the present, the past will be where you live your life. This is unfortunate because it doesn’t allow life to truly be experienced…

The amount of times the thoughts that cause emotional pain control you is mind boggling because it’s your own mind that does this; it probably happens thousands of times throughout your life. This is why most people suffer endlessly because what happened in the past controls the present, and although the body is always in the present moment, the mind is constantly somewhere else. This is the constant state most people live their life from and if nothing is done to change this, the mind will control your thoughts until existence in this form ends. This isn’t a philosophy or theory, nor is it something I made up, you only need to look at this for yourself to see this truth. If you don’t, you’ll remain stuck being controlled by your thoughts without a way out.

As a species we seem to be lost in this controlling thought mode and it’s because looking at ourselves in an investigative way is not something that many people are willing to do. It’s so much easier to look and point at others; check it to see this truth. You can ignore this and keep being controlled by the thought that everything will work out on its own. Or you can take control of your life to some extent and stop being controlled by the thoughts that cause your own suffering. After all the same thoughts are constantly in control, but if they’re not attached to, eventually they’ll stop and so will the emotional suffering they cause…
