Thinking about thinking Sometimes in life it doesn't always turn out the way you want it to be. You may plan for a thousand and one things to be done. But somehow, things will unfold itself in such queer manner that you can't help but to believe that something else is at play here.
Some people call it destiny, others believe in fate. For the non-believers, they call it coincidence.
But whatever it's known as, we believe that there's some force at work here - that is creating something, you may not have total control. Nevertheless, you can always try to improve it and make the best out of the situations.
Hence, I always believe in meta cognition - thinking about thinking. As thoughts are very powerful and it can influence the final outcome of a lot of things.
As quoted from Roald Dahl, "The Twits" - "If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it.
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely."
The power of positive thinking - everything happens for a reason. It may not be the time for us to know the true reason of a chain of events. But do trust me, when the right moment has arrive, you will definitely know the truth and maybe even the reason behind it.
In the meanwhile, just be happy and always keep an open-mind, for life is constantly changing.
Enjoy it, for we only live once!
