According to the new age philosophy of Science of Mind, our whole life is really just a movie screen on which our thoughts are projected. Talk about pressure! Even if I try to not think negatively, I can't help some of those neurotic, thoughts from creeping up. For positive and neutral thoughts (if you can hack them) it's all very good. For instance, this morning I was thinking about my friend Deniece who I love very much. Later in the day I was in Sav-On, buying some X-mas lights and guess who I saw? Deniece! However, in the afternoon, I was on a walk with my friend Martha and we were walking on a street where a lot of people walk their dogs. Casually, I thought to myself, "At some point, I'm probably going to step on some dog shit." Next thing you know, it's in the crevices of my Danskos.

Just for today, I can be paranoid about my negative thoughts.
