as simple as it seems, that's a hard concept to wrap one's brain around sometimes. or is it truly easy, and it's me being difficult?

just musing

    it's all clearly explained in the matrix.

    also, if you wrap your brain around something, it will probably kill you....chiqui.

    Brains are funny little things. All nerves and chemicals.

    If you got the chemicals come a rushing in and playing with the nerves, you can try to "will" yourself to a positive frame of mind all you like but all that's gonna happen is you end up exhausted, feeling like a failure and even more miserable than you were before.

    I dunno chiq, but when I'm not happy or things aren't going so well in the positivity stakes, I just try to hang on. Accept that things are shit for now and do my best to just be until I start to feel better.

    So no, I don't think "it's all state of mind". Otherwise we'd all be running around skipping through the sunshine, eating mung beans and singing Let the Sun Shine In! ;):)
    NOPE!!!

    Everything were are, everything we know, is all state of mind if you think about it, or state your mind. :D

    It's easy. The only thing preventing any of us from being truly happy is our own state of mind.

    Everybody has ups and downs... it's all how you handle it that decides if it's a tragedy or just one of those things. Sometimes it feels like the entire world's against you... and you can turn that into a comedy :)
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    I'm really starting to believe, each time more, that it really is all state of mind.
    But I wonder if we are capable to will ourselves into happiness lol

    PS. What's wrong with going around singing "Let the sun shine in?" :p This is the dawning of the age of aquarius man... :D

    Well, I think the biggest changes people make in themselves and in the world start in their minds. So, it can sometimes just be a matter of looking at something in a completely different way.

    interesting thoughts guys. yeah, usually i'm of the mindset that sure, it's all in how you look at things. i guess some days it's easier to do that others.
