To be thinking is to be alive. Thinking feels like just being. We don’t know that silence and space can even exist between thoughts, that we can exist in the absence of thinking. Furthermore, we don’t know that thoughts can appear and we can choose to decline their invitation, decide not to engage in their content. We don’t know another way of living, other than thinking.

Nancy Colier and Stephan Bodian

Once again, I repeat: we are not our thoughts. We are the awareness the thoughts are arising to and within. Most thoughts don’t matter, and some thoughts really don’t matter. Every moment we invest in our unwanted thoughts, every ounce of energy we put into trying to disprove them, is a morsel of time and energy wasted. We are validating and strengthening what’s insignificant—a strange, albeit noisy blip in a flawed system.
