We are what we eat. So is it with our thoughts. What we experience and perceive mold and shape our minds. Experiences defines the course and movements of our minds, be it good or bad. However, one must not forget that one has more control over the preference as to what we want to eat rather than having control over what we would like to perceive. We could add spices to what we want to eat, but with our thoughts, we could neither add what is tasty nor filter what is bitter, sweet or bland. We could take out the pieces of meat, vegetables and garnishing that we do not want while in our thoughts, we could only differentiate but not shove it out completely. We could choose the amount that we would like to consume, but for what our minds think about, we could hardly cut it into pieces, moreover chew what we only want.
Yes, there are a whole lot of similarities between eating and thinking...but there are lot of differences as well...BIG, BIG DIFFERENCES. We are what we eat, so is it with our thoughts but what separates the two, aside from what is physically and materially obvious is the reality of CONTROL FACTOR.
