A Mind Can Be An Open World That Can Be Scary
I Have notice my mind wandering more lately and that could be scary.

There is one thing that the mind can do is wander very effectively and mine seems to have no problems with that lately. Many people may wonder why a mind wonders and I really have no answers for that one at all. My mind though gets some weird and not so weird thoughts. I thought an article about some of my random thoughts would be fun. Everyone can post there in the comments if they want too. I would love to read them. Here goes my random thoughts that keep creeping into my thoughts.
One of my favorite reads growing up as a kid was Huckleberry Finn and his adventures. Now what really thrilled me was how he explored rivers on a raft and all the things he encountered. Every time I go over a bridge with a big stream running under it takes me back to Huck Finn. I cannot really explain it, but it seems so exciting to have an adventure like that for some reason. I guess you can call me crazy, but it seemed like a lot of fun.
When I sleep at night it seems my mind wonders back to my past and it asks me questions like what if you did this and not that and it makes me wonder all day long. I remember these dreams usually very vivid the next day and it gets me thinking about it. I always wonder if this ever happens to other people as well. Or am I just a crazy person when it comes to dreams. Maybe one day I will get to find out and see where it goes.
They say the mind is a terrible thing to waste and I think my takes that saying literally sometimes. One area I struggle with in my mind is all the ideas it gives me. It will give me story ideas so quickly I tend to forget about them until it's too late. I think I need to have me a pen and pencil by my side at all times. This way I would never forget the things my mind is trying to help me with.

One of my doctors told me that I need to meditate more to release my thoughts and clear my mind. I thought to myself you know that is a great idea. It would clear my head and make things easier for me. I could get more done with a clear mind and work better towards my goals. What I found out it made it worse as I got more ideas and more questions then ever before. So meditation may work wonders for some it had the opposite effect for me.
After some people read this they will think my mind is an endless uncontrollable entity, but it's really not. It helps me in many ways. Gives me great ideas along the way that I can use. I just have to learn to harness it does for me. Once I learn to control the great power the mind has I will be much better off.
Whats the point of this article you wonder really it's pretty simple. Just a way to tell you how important the mind it so each one of us. By using our mind and what it can help us do we can be better people and make our life better. I've learned to listen to what my mind has to tell me and it has helped me in many different ways. The mind is very powerful and hopefully more and more studies will come out about what the mind can do and how we can use it to our advantage.
