You are the owner of your thoughts, but you are a slave of your actions....

 

If you ever happen to read any psychology book then this title will be very familiar to you. What I mean to achieve with this title is to bring your attention back to the fact that the busyness of our life have deprived us from that quality time which we should have spent with ourselves. You have all rights to think in whatever manner you would like to, right or wrong doesn't matter because your thoughts will remain hidden inside you. But your actions will affect your life forever, which means that it is your duty to be very careful with all of your actions. Hope by now you are completely aware of my intensions "Highlighting the value of our moral values".

Our thoughts are like a piece of earth where the seed of our thinking and belief is nurtured. If you plant a seed of beautiful rose plant in sand then I hope you understand the kind of joke you will be playing on yourself. In this chapter I'm trying to remind the secret that our thoughts control our behaviour, and no matter how hard you try, you can't expect to have a good social behaviour unless you keep your thoughts under check.

I completely agree that thoughts of a person will be affected by the situation of the person he/she is in. A single guy might be free like a bird, he can fly on to any tree, sit, sing, shit on cars and people (I'm still talking about bird). On the same hand life of a single girl will be totally different, she'll be flying with caution, and she won't sit on every tree/branch unless she feels good about this inside her heart.

Now let's talk about the emotionally torn section of society... The married ones. Their thoughts will be of a total different league, they could be as boring as saving money, grocery, cloths, kids, toys, their home, camp fires. They could also be professionally passionate (growth, success, money, carrier competition), or there could be few blessed ones with a content family living their peaceful life.

Most neglected part of the society i.e. elderly will have their thoughts as calm as the ocean. Accepting everything with silence, still ready to pour out all their love and guidance on those who give them just one touch full of respect/love.

So please understand that the thoughts should not be categorized, they should be respected, shared, accepted, corrected and then implemented in to our life. There is no thumb rule for the kind of thoughts you should have as per your age/religion/gender or country. But there is this rule that all your thoughts should be evaluated with and by your moral values and ethics.

I know we all know this, unfortunately we still somehow need to remind ourselves of all this cute mess in life. Remember the title of this page, just write it down, keep a print of it in front of you... let your sub-conscious brain get a clear idea about this. In just 15 days you will see fruits of your honest efforts.
