Just before I was about to retire to bed last night,a thought knocked my mind door.
From the past experiences, I somehow knew that if I welcomed it, I would have to open my space to it, serve it water, snacks and may get enticed to offer a good drink on the rocks and ask it to stay for dinner too.
So, this time I latched my door first and saw it from the keyhole to have a good look at it whether to open my mental house to it and let it juggle with my emotions.
While looking at it ,I scanned my next day and early morning commitment and so mustered up courage to say NO to it.
Honestly, I was a bit hesitant, as a habit to say Yes and welcome all.
Last night was a changed response of mine.
I just said NO and also conveyed that I shall contact it as soon as I will have time to give time to it.
Wow! Bingo! It smiled and moved on. And I slept like a child and trust that all is fine and I am being taken care by my caretaker.
I wondered how come I never did this before and thanked that I did it now.
Wow, I learnt that at will I can stop a thought to enter or stay or even decide the duration for their stay too.
At will I can decide their exit time after feeding the emotions.
So, now at my will I can choose to master the responses and watch the game of mind while I myself is the pawn in the chess.
I choose! I am!
