This Is The True Power Of Healthy Thinking

This may not mean anything to you, but I hope it finds you well. If you started reading these lines, I pray I didn’t waste your time.

At this very moment, there is a thought I may probe, and I hope it wakes you up. It’s a writer’s big push to bring one into their mind, so welcome. Thoughts we have every day, some meaningful, some meaningless, construct who we are. I’m not referring to the ones fleeing; I’m referring to the one that whispers. When we think every day, it’s important we stay positive. But in all reality, the negative thoughts do come around. Your eyes that move with each word as you read are doing so because you control them. You never realize control until you’ve lost it. You don’t understand what you have until it’s gone. Even when we can’t verbalize them, the emotions we feel come from a place. It’s often a place you can’t see, but you feel.

The reliance on the naked eye has become the new blind. We often tell children there’s no such thing as monsters because of how we illustrate them on Disney. As an adult, have you ever felt this monster? No, it may not have fangs or a scary face, but it’s usually a feeling or mental state you can’t shake. Contrary to belief, it’s not always a childhood trauma; it can sometimes be the power of your mind being used wrong. The overthinking that you think of when you hear the word is often misread or misdiagnosed. This power I speak of may not have a throne or a crown, but it can control. It’s an overthrowing of our natural flow of thinking and may seem like our brain drank a gallon of RedBull. This isn’t a shameless plug, but it serves as an illustration Disney can’t depict.

Pollution isn’t only in the air; it enters all sensory canals. All those negative thoughts may not come from a painful memory, but it also doesn’t minimize you recognizing that something isn’t right. We as a society have grown comfortable with the polarity of things. If your thoughts aren’t logical, you’re seen as a mad man or labeled as a mental illness. Some of them may be correct, but what about the average person that has these thoughts? Have we forgotten about them?

I hope this sheds light on the average man trying to navigate the everyday pollution we encounter. From our music, conversations, and, dare I mention, social media, we have to enforce power for the healthy natural flow of thought.
