Remember Mindfulness – breathe slowly

Knowing reality

When we question things – advice, instructions or
just the behaviour of another person, we are
reacting in a human way. Other animals do not
normally question situations, although young
animals show curiosity in their early years. Human
ability to doubt and question may have helped our
survival as a species (why is the long grass moving?
Because there’s a lion hiding there). Strangely,
humans are also unique in having dreams and
fantasies that can influence their attitudes and
actions. So, on the one hand we can fantasise
ourselves into unreality and on the other, we check
ourselves by questioning. It is important to
recognise these two influences on our behaviour.
Am I aware of my capacity to distort reality?

Balance is everything. By daily meditation, I can
learn the habit of self-awareness. If I have internal
conflict, it is usually because I want something, or I
resist something that my conscience is telling me to
do. If I learn to see things honestly, I can take action
to restore balance. Today I thank God that I can
dream and also question my dreams.
