Listen to Your Mind’s Discoveries

The day started off merry and bright  

But little did they know that their mind was on the future.  

They tried staying bright and merry  

But their mind started connecting to the past. 

Their conscious mind intended on positivity, 

Their subconscious mind was opening old closet doors. 

Without control, they suddenly snapped and reacted.  

They felt guilty but they didn't yet know what caused this. 

They sensed that something bothered them,  

They retreated into a quiet space to listen.  

Little did they know that excitement for today would lead thoughts to tomorrow and yesterday,  

Or that today was the day they'd face it.

 In Life, we set intentions for ourselves and underestimate how much thinking our mind is doing without our consciousness. Sometimes it's connecting dots without our knowledge and we don't give it the attention it asks for when we notice ourselves acting out of character. There will always be times when we slip up because we're not yet conscious of the picture forming in our mind. Try not to be quick to judge or berate yourself. Let yourself feel it all and listen to your mind's discoveries.
