The World Within

For so long I have looked outward noticing all the problems in this world and culture, but it not until recently that I have truly looked inward and the world within.

As I  pay attention to my feelings and my thoughts I realize that there is so many things that I simply choose not to think about. That as soon as my mind goes down certain alleys and paths I am filled with fear and I immediate reaction is to stop thinking about the subject and move on to something else.

However I have recently been trying to avoid this and to pay extra attention in those places that I avoid. So far this has been very useful.  I am finding out more about myself every day and coming to terms with some issues rather then avoiding them.

Give it a try.  As you think and you mind avoids certain subjects, don't move on but pay extra attention to those things and with a spirit of self honesty truly question why that subject makes you uncomfortable, or scared.  It is very likely that these are the aspects of our life that you need to recognize, come to terms with, and then change, but if we simply avoid it... is any of this possible?
