The Mind: A Lock, Block or Bridge?

Your mind is capable of higher thinking - MUCH higher than you can imagine. But your thoughts have to get out of the way. Sounds like opposite ideas, but your mind isn't just about your thinking, especially when it's detached from your heart or soul. This is the story of me obsessing about not remembering the combination of a lock on my bicycle. This obsession lasted a solid three days. I had to let it go before I could take it to the bicycle store. And guess what happened? I remembered, late one night, out of the blue, that the combinaton of my lock here is not the one I was thinking. My mind surrounded itself around these numbers and my mind became a block. I set about any way to use my brain to figure out how to figure it out. And I just kept hitting walls. The lock analogy you may find simple and funny, but do you realize that your brain can work the same way vis-à-vis your emotional problems. Thinnk about it, don't you obsess on what's wrong with you? Don't you have a hard time mentally trying to overcome emotional problems? Don't you re-live a bothersome situatoin again and again, talking about it and justifying your feelings, in order to be right? And, after all that, isn't progress minimal? Where are your answers...REALLY? Not entirely in your brain. And if you think it is, creative and emotionally healthy solutions will elude you as your brain attaches itself to justification and resentment. Your mind really IS a bridge... is the ultimate bridge or tool between the depth of you and your thinking. Your mind, when connected like a bridge is a higher self, higher mind and the depth of being that is ME. Get the brain out of the way to create greater connection through awareness and toward growth.
