How are you feeling?

The way we feel, affects the way we think.  Don’t you think?  And it is all interwoven… with things like our past experience, or our physical condition, or our hope, our joy, our sadness.

Consider this photograph.  When you are driving down the road, and you see such a sight, any number of things may be going on in your mind.  I can only speculate on the possibilities.

I would guess that most people would say… “Oh what lovely fall colors.  Look how the leaves are changing.”

That’s probably a high percentage answer among the masses.

Yet. Farmer-types may say something like… “I wonder when they are going to get those beans in?” (Those are soy beans for you city folk.  Edamame for those who are City-City Folk.  And the country folk are saying… “Who the heck is Etta Mommy?”)

But I digress.  Again. Dag nab it.

Back to the car.  And… we are driving….

Some people may see such a scene and remark …”Winter is just around the corner.  I hate the snow and ice.”

It just depends on the person.  In fact, it may even depend on the day….

Yes.  Thank goodness we are all different, and think our own thoughts.  That is what makes us unique, and beautiful, no matter what we are contemplating.   It is simply how we are made.

Now when I am driving down the road… I might see that Wall of this Spectacular…and think any number of things myself.  And there again…. as I mentioned…. it may depend on any number of factors.

Yesterday, I might have worried that the Giant Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man might be bounding over the horizon at any moment.  THEN… who you gonna’ call?

Or I could be wondering about all the little creatures living in that neighborhood of trees.  The birds, bunnies, squirrel, deer, Sasquatch, raccoons, and such.

Perhaps,  I may not notice anything….. at all.  I may be thinking… “Polly.  Slow down, you move too fast.  Got to make the morning last.  Just kicking down the cobble stones. Gall darn it …. I’m looking for fun and feelin’ groovy.”

Feeling groovy.

Yes.  What we think is affected by how we feel.  I like to keep in the “Feeling Groovy” Zone.   Positive thoughts and outlooks are far more desirable in life… than the negative ones.

And…. heaven only knows I don’t like worrying so much about the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.  Think positive thoughts….  Groovy.
