RE: Steemitzombies: Good and Bad are human constructs
Well, technically no thinking is negative, there is only contradictory thoughts, but for convenience's sake I also call it negative. I don't really want to think any thoughts I see as negative but when they pop up they need to be acknowledged and not thrown under the rug like some new agers like to do. It's kind of like a massage, gotta work out the knots, and it hurts sometimes but it always feels better afterwards.
We are all enlightened! :-D except for Hamlet, who knows exactly what to do and doesn't do it.
It's impossible NOT to think - it's what the human brain does. Definitely shouldn't be throwing it under the rug - i think there's a big movement now towards self compassion because it's worse when we think negative thoughts and beat ourselves up over it. Much better to acknowledge, as you say.
