I’m sure you’ve noticed how absent you are when you’ve been daydreaming. You are not here, now. You are off , totally absorbed in a thought stream, unconscious. But, a moment comes when you become aware that you were lost in thought. In that instant, you are no longer lost. You have become Present. You have awakened from the dream.
Most regular thinking is daydreaming. Most of the thoughts are repetitive, and have nothing to do with the present moment. As a result they produce anxiety and stress. Know that you are not your thoughts. Thought are optional and simply not always necessary.
When you wake up from a thought stream, who is it that notices this? It is You, as pure consciousness. This is your Awakening. Choose to be awake rather than following the next thought stream. Value these moments and you will see that thoughts will have less ability to make you unconscious, and veil you to the present moment, the fullness of life and inner peace.
