Lately, I feel as if I am walking on a path that does not belong to me.
Mind over matter. How much I love this quote. Mind over matter, that's all there is to it. Once you've set your mind onto something, you've got the power to do anything you want. The mind will give us the driving force that the body can fail to do. Whether it be running miles and your body is screaming, pleading for you to stop, the mind takes control and allows us to finish the mile. Whether it be picking up that last piece of chocolate, the mind holds the fingers down from grabbing the little devil. Mind over matter. Flawless, a fact, a perfect guide to live by. Or that is what we want to believe. That is what the mind wants us to perceive.
How easy the mind is to trick and how easy the mind will give into the heart.
When it is the mind versus the heart, it is always the heart that wins.
The heart is victorious.
Because in many ways, the heart is the strongest part of the body.
For the arm, the leg, the stomach, the mouth, and every other part of the body is able to be cured by doctors, the heart mends itself. When a heart is left broken into a billion pieces, we do not ask the doctor to sew up our heart back together.
With the heart's unique ability to sew itself back, whether the heart prefers eating a pint of ice cream or whether the heart prefers crying it's sorrow out, all in all, it is healed.
How foolish for a person to believe the mind can be unbeaten.
Though, I forgive myself. For one day, my mind will be victorious and unbeatable.
One of my life goals: To take a long vacation somewhere far far away, all by myself.
