"The Mind will determine the quality of life" author unknown.

This simple statement is extremely profound.  

We often assume that there are outside sources that dictate the value of our lives; but having a healthy free open mind is the core to a life of quality.

In the book "Out There" by David Clark, he spoke about seeing your sickness amid the people who are equally as sick as you.  Same goes for a dysfunctional mind and a mind that is hanging out with the members of the same brainwashed system.  How can it know it is brainwashed? Who among the other brainwashed will be able to see and then point it out?  

What has been most clearly seen to me, now that I am no longer under the strain of being brain washed, is a mind that is completely controlled by a 'higher' power.  Where the individual is no longer in control of their lives.  

There are some quite disturbed minds who are running the show.  Mostly they keep the individual locked away from reality and finding their own happiness.   

A person completely under control of their minds are shocking to watch.

A woman who is breathless and frozen while she tries to manage another's happiness is lost to this day's beauty.

What I find so utterly intriguing is how their minds have them believing that they are the source for someone else's happiness, peace, love and joy.  This thought leaves them waiting for someone else then to come along and deliver the same to them.

Co-dependency at its best.

I am completely grateful for finding my way free of the co-dependency system as well as the cult-like religion; both who messed completely with my head.

There are a million sad situations I could have been left in.

When I now bump into people whose lives have zero reason for their stress and anxiety, where the mind has completely taken over their peace, I am unsure of what I can offer them in ways of getting out.

How do you convince someone whose mind has them convinced?

"A mind convinced against its will, is of the same opinion still."

They are locked in their heads.  

The mind itself is blocking their exit.

Seeing the world and believing in their powerlessness.

I see vestiges of me, my former self, drifting in reality unseeing and unmoving.  It is surreal at best. 

Mostly, they are signposts to keep moving…being and to celebrate my healthy mind.

The mind truly does determine our quality of life.
