Talk of the mind
Mind: Hello anybody out there? Heart: Hi it`s me.Mind (shouting): I can`t see anybody!Heart thinking: Ok, I´m waiting, life is helping him. Mind: Oh I´m alone, it scares me. (Looking at himself). Oh I´m naked, let´s put on some clothing. Yea,now I can see. Wow there must be someone out there, but I can`t see you. Wait a moment I can hearsomething. Oh here you are, come one I have something for you! Try this wonderful jacked, it`s myfavorite. Oh look you are beautiful; this jacked was my mother’s favorite (big smile).
Years later.
Mind: Slowly I run out of clothing. It´s getting harder and harder finding clothes for all of them. Bythe time I´m getting tired. Heart: Hi I´m still here. Mind: You must be an illusion. I can`t see you. And who you think you are! All the years you aredenying the most beautiful and expensive clothing I offer you. Heart: All you see is your perfection in designing your own garment. You fall in love with your ownideas. Mind: You are not real, you have the biggest choice of the most beautiful collection I can offer you. And what do you do? Nothing! This is insane. You must be insane. I offer you all my treasures in thebrightest colours and designs everybody else is looking for. My world is perfect. I control everything.The designers, the workers, the retail, the money everything. What can you do for me? Heart: Sit and wait. Life is showing you your world.
As time goes by people start producing their own clothing.
Mind: I run out of business. Nobody is any more interested in my designs. I feel lonely. Heart: Beautiful. Mind: You are arrogant. I´m here suffering and you do nothing. You could buy my fabrics. Heart: Look, there is a whole in your jacket. Mind: Yes, I´m too tired to fix. But I won`t give up. One day I will fix it. Heart: I will be there. Mind: But now it`s winter time and my clothing isn’t warming any more. Heart: Ok, freeze! It´s all you have to do. Mind: I am dying. It´s gonna be a hard winter. You scare the death out of me. Heart: (Smiling.) Look around you. Everybody else you see is freezing as well. You can´t see anybodyelse doing something else unless you lose all your fabrics. Mind: This will never happen. The people love me, giving them fashion to dress. I stick to it to thevery last second of my life. Heart: You are right (smiling). Look at you, you are half naked. Now I can see who you are. Mind: But that´s not the way I want you to see me. Help, I need help to build a new and moresophisticated production plant for clothing, so I can rescue the whole world. Heart: You are running out of time. All you have to do is to stop moving. Mind: But who is taking care of all this. It`s me! And if I do nothing we all will freeze to death. This I will not allow to happen as long as I have energy left for working. Heart: Just sit and watch. There is not much left from your business. You look skinny and the lastdress you have looks old and torn up. Mind: Yeah but it`s mine! Perhaps I can find another captain of industry who will help me out, so Ican start a new business. Heart (thinking): The mind is the most beautiful tool I`ve ever seen. Someday he will be losing his fear about imperfection …
