Sometimes, what happens to us – or rather, what we unknowingly create through our emotions, feelings, and thoughts – begins to take on a life of its own.
Sometimes our thoughts take control of both our emotions and our feelings. And then something begins to unfold that was created outside the truth of what is actually happening – built on fiction woven from a mistaken judgement, or from confusing thoughts with emotions and feelings.
And often, those thoughts are not even truly ours.
That is why we sometimes find ourselves in situations that are more like stories we have created than reality itself.
And let us not forget that we women also have hormones, which love to add something of their own to the mix.
Then it becomes difficult to tell what is fiction and what is truth. What we genuinely want, and what we do not.
So many times, we create entire scenarios in our minds about how something is supposed to be. And when the long-awaited moment finally arrives, our reaction turns out to be completely different from the one we had imagined.
But perhaps this too is part of life’s strategy.
Perhaps it gives us a chance to look more closely at those thoughts, to pause and ask: Where did they come from? When did they take root in me? And what are they trying to show me?
Because perhaps, somewhere within this confusion between fiction and truth, there is still something hidden – something waiting to be discovered for the sake of our wellbeing.
