better out than in...

...and no, I'm not talking about gas!

I'm talkin' thoughts, cognition, brain activity; little neurons that emit chemical and electrical impulses by way of our nervous system which reveal to our mind the many random tangents (thoughts) that occur by the tens of thousands each day. These thoughts help us decipher, interpret and make sense of the world (sometimes). Based on our experiences and conditioning; self-reflection, introspection, contemplation and logic are very unique to each individual... anyways, that was a tangent in itself in case you didn't notice...

better out than in...I have been blogging 'heaps'. Feels like I have lots on mind (nothing new) in regards to so many thins, letting go of someone I unexpectedly and suddenly fell in love with, working 1000 hours a week, paying off debt, doing yoga, not spending enough time with my parents or friends.

The best part about having this blog is that I don't have to bore the shit out of my friends, I can bore the world instead. Seriously though, for anyone that has stuff on their mind and can't slow down their thoughts or process them fast enough, get it out onto paper if you can handle the hand cramps, or in my case start a 'a la simple' blog. The beauty of the technology age. A quill and ink would never work today... anyways, my point is Just get it out! I look at it like this, if you don't have an outlet all the thoughts have no where to go and will just to continue to bounce around in your mind. Making them tangible words that exist in reality make them real and what you do with them after that is entirely up to you. Some thoughts become ideas, some thoughts are funny and pointless and have very little significant meaning but to be able to re read them and wonder what the hell you were thinking when you wrote them in the first place is simply a nice thing to be able to do. We are constantly changing and remembering what and how we felt at certain points though out our lives is an impossible task and being able to capture these thoughts weather we keep them or let them go is a nice choice to have.

So just to tell you how my mental processing capabilities have changed since my return from London in 2007 to date 22 June 2011 I have really felt a tremendous shift as to how my mind works, the way I  deal with people, situations, and life. Rather than being my mind and my thoughts I now acknowledge that thoughts come and go and rather than giving breathe to them (especially the negative self defeating ones) I sit an observe. By this I mean, I actively and consciously decide which thoughts to pursue.

So in case we forgot what I was writing about, because I did for a moment...to sum it up... high level overview... I have lots on my mind and I'm gonna to write!
