This is a quote from Buddha. I agree with it very much- our thoughts do form us into who we are. Our thoughts and our mind ARE who we are... they are what make us different and unique from everyone else. Sure, we may share opinions and standpoints on some things, but in the end our brains and minds and thought processes are all different in small ways and it is this that gives us our own individuality.
Most people look at "isms" as only two things: optimism and pessimism. However, they forget realism. I am a realist in my way of thinking. I don't try to taint anything with gloom or over-enthusiasm. I instead try to see everything with honesty and truth- and when I speak, I say things how they are. Not how others want them to be. This is a part of who I am. I try to be logical, though I am often overthrown by emotions (unfortunately). I have a warped sense of humor that I inherited from my dad and carry on to my friends. I am often quiet and reserved in public... unless I am with my friends. This is who I am. How I think reflects how I act. How I perceive others also reflects how I act. I try to take lessons from everyone... even if they are small and seemingly insignificant. I can sometimes learn the most from strangers who don't even realize they are teaching me. Who are you? And how do your thoughts reflect you? ~Maddie
