Thoughts That You Have To Think

Ways to Feel And Act

Our brains have the same makeup, but different, as we are, in what they can do for us. Our thoughts are one of them. There is no restriction on the thoughts that we think. There is a limit to the thoughts that we have. It is not the same for any of us. It depends on what you have in your world to think about. You will not have a thought about something you do not know a thing about.

There are no equal rights of thought. We do have the sole privilege to think the thoughts that we have. And that is with no known limit. Now, of course, we are not all Einstein.

The world we live in is the thing that determines our thoughts. Our thoughts come to life based on how we perceive what we see, hear, and feel. We are taught how to think, no matter the genes we may have been gifted with. We do not teach ourselves: We learn from the many teachers in our lives. Unfortunately, some are not good thinkers and pass on what they were taught. This way of thinking flows from one generation to the next. It is a part of what we have to live with.

Thoughts Are What We Have To Think

Whether we choose peace or war, love or hate, empathy or indifference, it is how we think.  Well, whenever, whatever is handed down to us, we then try it on our own. As we grow and develop, we decide what to think. Even so, what we think will be influenced by what we were taught in our formative years. Many were not taught the skills necessary to survive, as a result, they do not and live a life of misery and pain on their way out.

If you want different thoughts to think, you must open your world to more things. You have to meet more or different people, go to places you have not been, and do things you have not tried. If you hold back, you will continue to think what you have always thought and do what you have always done. Even our imagination has its roots in what we know. It cannot run away with you on its own. The dreams that we have are no different; though, you may find it hard to believe with the dreams that you have.

So You Know My Thoughts

There are many things that someone can do for you, but thinking is not one of them. Though people we know, some we just met, and even others we have not, will try. To do so, they would first need to know your thoughts. There are some things that we have that belong to no one but us. They are our thoughts. And we cannot have a thought about things we do not know exist. We think based on knowing. There is no limit, but not all thinking is the same.

When I say to think a thought, I mean that thought and thinking are not always the same. A thought is just a thought until you think it. Think of a thought as being inert, not doing a thing from when you have it until you think of what you want to do with it. The time between the two is so short that there is no way to measure it. Another thing, when someone says, I know what you are thinking, well, of course, they do not. We are yet to know when someone has a thought to think. And there are good reasons we do not.

I Read Minds. No, You Do Not

We know other people by what they say and do. We were not given the ability to read minds. If you are wondering why not, think if you knew what is on the minds of the people you know, and, likewise, they could read your thoughts. The things we would do to each other are unimaginable. It is not possible if we want to continue to exist as we are or at all.

Thought is not only what you had. It is also what you have. You thought, and you have a thought. A thought cannot be forced. To try to do so is called thinking. Once we have a thought, we think it or it moves to our memory. It will not be undone. It is the same as it is with life. The life we have lived cannot be changed. What exists to us is all we know. And we decide what we are going to do with it. Think about this.

You perceive, have thoughts, think, feel, and then act.

Say you are walking down a long and winding road, and along the way, you meet me. You will have a thought based on your perception of me and others “like” me. This is the first thing that will happen. You will then think about us. If you like what you see, you may proceed, though with caution. If you do not feel safe, you may go in another direction. Or you may not have strong feelings either way. No matter how you feel, your feelings will be based on what you think. And you will act according to how you feel. We perceive, have a thought, we think, we feel, and we act. That is the course of an action process, as I believe it to be.
