I hate labels. I hate anything that ties you to something. even the smallest things. I am not this, I am not that. Grrrr, this is frustating to me, but surely it is more frustrating. being one of those that concede and live to a label i.e i am this, i am that. My personal level of thinking has progressed recently that I could go as far as saying that I no longer value thinking as much.

The latin phrase “cogito, ergo sum”, I think, therefore I am is something I lived by ever since I developed this ability to think for myself, I swore by it. This newly discovered power of thinking consumed me, I went thinking everywhere I went, at all times of day. However, thinking is not it, there is a greater power than that. To think is to reduce your thoughts to objects, self reflection is cool, but even that has its weaknesses. IF someone continuse to think inwards and self reflect too much, the whole world becomes made up of objects that even you become an object. This is where I am at, I am seeing things as objects, i see people as objects/characters and it annoys me. I even began to see myself as an object, a projection of my thinking and self reflection – I despise it. I am no object; I am nothing and everything at the same time.

The higher power, greater than that of thinking, bypasses the mind, knowledge and intellect. Thinking is only one way of knowing the world, the other is through the power of intuition. One may not understand, one may question how do use this power then pffff its rubbish again. But really, it’s a more profound way of understanding, than the knowing,thinking, intellectual way. We have both of these great powers, we can and must use both. but we must start to change the power position.

I had an experience earlier this week where my intuition guided my behaviour, it was as if i knew what was going to happen. One must not reject their intuition but don’t force it either, its a power one must harness themselves.

…………………….*conclusion*…….. I love when things find you or when you find things that challange and change your way of thinking significantly. If you know me well, you know I love thinking – my dad has said to be ever since I was a boy, he is a thinking man, I am always thinking so naturally I assumed this mantra too. However, this new learning challenges this entirely. I passed it on to my dad – perhaps he has lived his whole life thus far, thinking and not knowing any different, not knowing a more profound way of living. Who Knows.
