the seed of an idea

Such was the tag line we created when Mental Messages was in it’s infancy. That was way back in the early 90′s. Phew! What a long time ago. But apparently, good creative survives the test of time. 

“It all begins with the seed of an idea” means that everything starts in your head. Shakespeare’s Hamlet said ”nothing is either good are bad, but thinking makes it so.” And if you really think about how we act in life, that’s so true. It’s all in how we think. Keep this in mind when a situation arrives that you’re not thrilled about. Your manner of thinking will allow you to reframe it in a way that can turn it from bad to good, like making lemons out of lemonade. 

sitting with feelings

When we simply allow ourselves to fully feel our feelings as they come, we tend to let them go easily. This is all we are required to do; our feelings simply want to be felt. We often complicate the situation by applying mental energy in the form of analysis, when all we really need is to allow, as the earth allows the rain to fall upon it. As the rain falls, the earth responds in a multitude of ways, sometimes emptying out to form a great canyon, sometimes soaking it up to nourish an infinitude of plants.
