Empire of Your Mind

... an enormous amount of water (us), and every one of us, including my happy self, likes to credit themselves with being somewhat special in one way or another --- and we should; for we are all really exceptional in our own right. However, most of us have no inclination whatsoever that we are kindred with not only every other humanoid, but we also have a common link with everything else on this planet --- even that hugh mountain of cow-dung in the barn yard.

Whether or not we wish to concede to it, it’s a verifiable fact. When we penetrate and peer into the seemingly bottomless depth of the realm of the atoms, where there lurks such energetic particles we have titled mesons, bosons, gluons, and electrons (and many others), we have no choice but to face the reality that everyone, and everything is related...”We Are Star Stuff”(Carl Sagan).

What segregates us from the cow stuff in the barn yard, and from each other, to one degree or another, is that we own minds, and imaginations, and can therefore think...although I’ve noticed a few items in refrigerators, and walking the streets, I believe science should be aware of.

Several other attributes isolate us human apods from one another, and a few of them are a healthy sense of humor, a brisk brain, concrete common sense, and a prolific personality. but the over-riding and old fashioned obvious characteristic is, well, old-fashion character --- which James Allen, in his book “As A Man Thinketh” states “is the sum of one’s thoughts.” Homo-sapiens with charismatic character are the true exemplars of life. We have all met, seen, and/or heard of such folks of courage, will power, strength, wisdom and calmness ... two of them being Mother Teresa and Gandhi. They, and others like them, could find happiness and satisfaction in any situation, even in the barn yard, because they truly comprehend the importance of the proper order of things in their lives, and that we are the emperor’s of our minds – garbage in – garbage out!
