Mind Stretching

Having a flexible mind makes navigating life much easier, as you are not thrown off course easily.

Flexibility is the capacity to bend without breaking, as well as a continual willingness to change or be changed in order to accommodate new circumstances. People with flexible minds are open to shifting their course when necessary or useful; they are not overly attached to things going the way they had planned. This enables them to take advantage of opportunities that a more rigid person would miss out on. It can also make life a lot more fun. When we are flexible, we allow for situations we could not have planned, and so the world continues to surprise and delight us.

Since reality is in a constant state of flux, it doesn’t make sense to be rigid or to cling to any one idea of what is happening or what is going to happen. We are more in tune with reality when we are flexible. Being in tune enables us to adjust to the external environment and other people as they change and grow. When we are rigid or stuck in our ways, instead of adjusting to the world around us we hunker down, clinging to a concept of reality rather than reality itself. When we do this, we cut ourselves off from life, and we miss out on valuable opportunities, as well as a lot of joy.

Just as we create flexibility in our bodies by stretching physically, we can create limberness in our minds by stretching mentally. Every day we have the opportunity to exercise our flexibility. We can do this in small ways such as taking a different route home from work or changing our exercise routine. On a larger scale, we can rearrange the furniture or redo a room in our house. If these are things we already do regularly, we can stretch our minds by imagining several different possibilities for how the next year will unfold. As we do this, our minds become more supple and open, and when changes come our way, we are able to accommodate and flow with the new reality. AMEN! 😎🎈

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast of Florida and may this Wednesday be a good day
for you and hubby. 😎🎈

I was blown away by your post from last night. I don’t know what to think about what
the nurse said to you but I will certainly be talking to his doctor and surgeon.

How are you feeling today? Sorry you had a reaction to something you may have eaten.

If you are out and about keep it safe. Let me know how you are doing. Glad your neighbor
is a nurse and can at least give you sage advice.

@xango,

Good afternoon in Florida and I am hoping you are healing much better. 😎😉
I hope the family in Brazil are all doing well. 💕

May this be a nice Wednesday for you and your husband.

Please take care.
