We Are Not Our Thoughts
We are so attached to our thoughts. We think we are our thoughts, but we’re not. We think our thoughts are real, but if you watch them, you will see how contradictory they are.
Our thoughts change constantly. [...] there is no stability in our thoughts, freedom comes when you learn to just watch them pass.-Isha, Why Walk When You Can Fly?
I have been reading Why Walk When You Can Fly? and the above passage really stuck out to me. Why? It reminded me of this clip of Peaceful Warrior:
video management, video solution, video streaming
I forgot about this until I was walking with two friends after grabbing lunch. One of them mentioned that he sometimes felt bad for things that he thought! I was rather excited to quote the movie for them (I love movie quotes) but this synchronicity made me think I should share with you.

Wake Up!
“You can live an entire lifetime without ever being awake,” says Socrates (Nick Nolte, not the teacher of Plato). How true this is! In fact, it’s so true, that we can’t possibly put it all in one post; that’s what this entire blog is for. Life Revisited is intended to share “the light” with anybody and everybody willing to listen and consider the possibility that life isn’t exactly as it seems. And that’s a good thing! Everything you have ever wanted can be yours. Life can work out for you without the struggle that seems necessary to succeed or sometimes even survive. How? There is no “One” way to follow – that’s for you to work out for yourself, ultimately, but Life Revisited is here to help as much as possible, sharing what we know to help raise everybody’s conciousness.
Great things are coming. Keep your faith and optimism, but get ready to drop all your baggage, prejudice, and anything else weighing you down. Take a journey with us as we discover our own truths. They won’t be the same for everybody, and Life Revisited is here to be a place for new ideas for you to consider. Hopefully, you will be able to help us, too!
