Our Will and Our Lives

Our will is nothing more than our thinking apparatus… What is my life? My life is nothing more than my actions… All action is born in thought. (Charlie P)

A television show demonstrating thought
before so simple an action as catching
a dollar bill you know will be released.
All action is born in thought, for real.
It can seem I act without thought!
Surely I’d not choose to do some of what I do!
Not after thinking about it, even for a moment.
But my thoughts are what brought be to ruin,
my very best effort, year after year after year.
But what if that thinking process were to change?
What if it were not my own best efforts but smarter,
better, wiser, mightier… What if the will
pulling thought-strings were not my own
but one who got it, grasped more than the strings,
knew how to pull them…and knew when that dollar would fall…
What if the same old thoughts, thinking, actions…
were new?
