Unhealthy thoughts - past karma

Unhealthy thoughts chain us to the past.
They are a result of past karma that we cannot change.
But through mindfulness we can change our thoughts in the present.
We can recognize them as bad habits that we learnt long ago.
These obsessive thoughts cover our grief, insecurity and loneliness. Even power over others is weakness disguised as strength. It maybe insecurity and loneliness and fear masquerading as a dominating character.
This underlying suffering - due to unhealthy thoughts, needs to be help with compassion.
We need to know the source and feeling of these unhealthy thoughts.
Then we have to create healthy karma by replacing these thoughts with healthy ones. But we are loyal to our stories. The poor me is actually my identity.
When we try to collapse these stories and become a new person we can be
left with worry, doubt and fright.
It's like a broken record of the past playing again and again - causing bitterness and sorrow.
We can choose to release ourself from these thoughts and allow life's wonder and possibility. By changing the landscape of our thoughts we can revolutionise our entire world.
