You are only as good as you think you are. Difficult though it seems, the secret to being content is to know that it is the mind alone that holds the seed to all actions and also is the vulnerable ground that bears its consequences. Every other thing ever sensed is only a trick of light, sound and friction on the senses. Intuition, the much talked about sixth sense, comes with experience. Strong, 'powerful' intuition comes as a result of repeated experiences of successful outcomes of that intuition.
Everybody has minds that act similarly and project the same pseudo-real world (that includes every single object of thought excluding themselves) to blindly trusting senses.
All events happen in that projected world and then one loses true sense of identity because the outside of the mind is such a convincingly beautiful projection. Every single thing perceived by the mind is merely that; a perception.
Even right now, while a myriad of planets and stars change positions and create patterns in the skies, most likely oblivious to our existence, we gaze through telescopes in wonder and some of our more accomplished fellow humans study these patterns and speculate. Speculate whether these bright celestial bodies are physically reachable, which is to say, not entirely pointless in my head at present, but a delightfully meandering pass time. Change is generally thought to be welcome and good.
There won't ever be any dearth of change. Familiarity and constancy on the other hand dance in harmony with being content and happy.
These musings seem to remain in my head at all times. But till there is clarity of thought,no amount of thinking these thoughts will make them familiar enough to be comfortable thinking about.
With that note, I end my convoluted, 5 in the morning mind refreshing.
