I am sorry if you feel like your repeating yourself in some of your comments back to me, that is never my intention, but the added clarification does tend to help from time to time.

As I spoke of runaway mind syndrome, you'll notice I initially put syndrome in parenthesis for a reason. I didn't mean it as a harsh label or diagnosis. It was only meant to indicate how our minds are usually wandering without even realizing it and how frequently those wanderings lead to dwelling on the negative. I believe most of us spend far more time occupying our minds with less than beneficial thoughts than we do with loving thoughts that nurture us. Of course we have the option to let our minds wander, just as we have the choice not to do it. The main crux of my point in this post is what we allow them to wander toward. From my personal experience, I have found that when the mind wanders consistently, it eventually dwells on less than beneficial things. It's sort of like the six degrees of separation theory. If we start wandering to one thing and then another and another, we often bring ourselves right back around to the things we tend to dwell on the most, no matter where we started. I believe the mind can be strengthened just as the body. This post was a representation (as they all are) of my own personal experiences with the mind and my journey to continue strengthening my own mind. I'm not saying we should rule out every single stray thought, during every single second, which was why I mentioned doing this at least on a semi-consistent basis. I only meant it's important to take notice and be aware of where we wander to and how often it continues to occur. It's this feedback that's important to assess for someone that's seriously working toward making major changes in their lives, and I believe those changes always starts with harnessing the power of the mind.

After thinking about it, I opted not to type last night but wake fresh and renewed and type something then. Really only a few things stuck out but some of which I'm most passionate about. 1--Labels! Why must there be so many labels on the human body or the human psyche, I just don't understand. In this posting of yours, this was the very first time I've EVER heard of "run away mind syndrome." Syndrome, Disorder, Illness and so on, geez! I guess it's all a matter of mind and what you CHOOSE to allow into your life as an illness, since we create our own reality. My mind can wonder from time and time and even in the middle of a conversation, I can go absolutely blank about where I was going. However, I do not in the least consider myself to have a syndrome or disease of the mind because such a thing has happened. Now other organizations out there would tell you that is NOT a disorder but an effect of the galactic alignment with the photonic belt in 2012. As the energy and frequencies change ON Earth, Earth effects us and especially our electromagnetic biological make-up of these things called our body. Some would also say it's because you have to much on your mind. Others would say that something distracted you and you forgot where you were going. Others would say, LoL, you've smoked to much green in your life or you didn't eat right for the day. Personally, I do NOT get hung up about it. I don't label a right or wrong on it and I'm not saying that's what I felt you did in this post, please know that. Rather I'm just fed up with every single little "condition" of human living being labeled from our society. It's OK to forget once in a while. It's OK to have your thoughts wonder. We aren't some trained horse or something, we do have freedom to allow our minds to wonder and move about as we see fit. (I really hope this is sounding loving and not confrontational as text words have a way of doing that. I share this in thee most loving energy) 2--Unborn children. You are absolutely right John. Women are never ever told to beware of their emotional state while pregnant as the fetus is hyper sensetive to what is coming and going through the mother. When Mom was preggers with me, she was married to my biological father who was/is a very sweet kind and gentle man. I was the first grandchild in our family so I was wanted and loved strongly by all. 5 years later, Mom and I were on our own, she was preg with my brother and.....I'll just say we lived through some rather violent and hostile situations. Since the day Bro was born, he's been angry, upset, hyperactive and rarely at peace. He also has a tremendous fear of being alone where I, on the other hand, tend to thrive being alone. Though I do adjust nicely to living with loved ones but if chosen, I would remain alone with my own space. I was speaking with a very close and dear friend the other day and we were speaking about the topic of children. He mentioned, and I fully agree, that people shouldn't be allowed to have children just because they can. Rather they should be qualified in some way before they are even close to "making" the baby. I concur fully! It truly pains me to see women or families having children because of society pressure or because their "so called" biological clock is timing out. Such bs! I wish the deeper understanding of "if it's meant to be, it will be" was universally understood. In fact, I can think of about 5 women who are in their 40's-50's who have no children, by choice I might add, and yet would make thee most fantastic mothers around. They are grounded, mature, understanding, spiritually centered, wise beyond their years, extremely loving and very nurturing. Yet they too have made the delibrate choice to not have children and not bring them into an unstable situation of whatever is going on in their life around them. Moreover, what might look stable now could change drastically in 2 years. Some would say that's fear. Others would say it's maturity. In either event, I love our planet Earth but this place is one crazy zoo!! LoL, the more I dig down into the "rabbit hole" the deeper and darker it becomes. However, it also begins to shine more enlightment on this entire existance we call HUMAN. The amount of information coming forward both on Earth and from WITHIN is just mind blowing, it really is. Sorry again for this long post but as mentioned, I read this section last night in bed and really had to fight myself to leave it be until today. Thank you for your kind patience in allowing me to express myself so openly like this on your website. Your extremely kind John, we are all lucky to have you incarnated and on Earth with us now. Again, I type this all in love.
