Mind over matter

My whole life I've always felt like there is something more than meets the "eye" about this earth we inhabit. Its always fascinated me that we live on a ball floating in a vastness that no one can truly understand, and in many cases, doesn't want to understand. Fear has a way of shutting us down from recognizing that it truly is mind over matter.

Like everything else, fear is nothing, until it is imagined to be something. Fear is the controller of all things human. It's been passed on from generation to generation by imperfect beings who didn't know better.

As Maya Angelou said: "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better." The truth is: You are your mind and because of that you determine what matters. Change your mind and you change the matter.

Unless you are physically locked up without freedom, you have the ability every single moment of every single day to change your reality. It's as simple as understanding that nothing exists until you decide it exists. 

Your job doesn't exist until you arrive at work.
Your family and friends don't exist until you interact with them.
Your ailments don't exist until a bodily reminder of them flairs up.
Your argument with someone doesn't exist until it is revisited.
Your nose on your face doesn't exist until I mentioned it to you.

So, by understanding that nothing actually exists unless you want it to, you have the freedom to choose mind over matter all the time. 

​Look at yourself like maybe you are magic. Because you are.
