The mind is like a parachute

I used to use the term, "The mind is like a parachute, it works better when it's open." and of course, my managers used to smile at me when I would recite this! It always made the meetings more upbeat. But this saying is very true. When we are open to everything and really see everything, it opens up a new world for people. Now, perhaps we don't agree with all that we see, but if we don't judge it immediately and just contemplate what we are seeing with non judgemental eyes, our creative minds take over with the endless possibilities and this is how we find our true purpose and niche! When we are open to everything, we meet interesting people, different ways of thinking, different professions, and a chance to continually grow and learn. We have an endless capacity to grow which is amazing and something to take advantage of. The world has so much to offer, it's up to us to capitalize on this! Yes, the world is your oyster!!! Walk with a little smile and happiness in your eyes and you'll naturally meet some wonderful, interesting people! Like I've said in my earlier entries, you never know what is around the corner and what life has to offer each and everyday! Be excited about the day and look forward to it and it's amazing at what happens!
