Of all the clutter we can hoard the worst and deadliest is mental clutter.
We carry with us loads of thoughts, misdeeds, insults, wrong givings and grief of the past. We dwell in the misery of the environment thus created and indulge in self pity. We are closed to the world and any happiness it can offer as our mind cup is already full of unworthy thoughts thus keeping no room for positivity to enter. And then we blame ourselves…”why do bad things happen to me? Why me?”
A person full of his thoughts and misery is a very bad company for others as he only laments about his life, his short comings and his failures and then wonders why does he not have any friends.
All of us are prone to ups and downs in life. Some are unlucky enough to suffer more than others, however holding on to them ties us down. We need to let go of the past and make room in our minds and hearts for happiness to enter. It will not only uplift us but also provide inspiration to others.
So, regularly declutter your mind of useless thoughts by use of meditation, discrimination, courage, wisdom and living in the present moment.
