25 TUNNELING IS NOT THE SAME AS BEING STUCK IN THE DARK

As there's a reason for everything, private eyes collect clues when mysteries need to be solved.


If mental blocks are mysteries locked inside the subconscious portion of the mind, then who must be the private eye, assembling clues, until that block unlocks?


The sleuth must be the conscious portion of a person's mind.


When I sense an emotional block, clouding my sense of clarity, today, the conscious portion of my mind tunnels toward my subconscious in hopes of detecting a 'secret' that Mother Nature thought it best for me to forget.


When working to solve a problem, overlong, these question arise:  Am I'm heading down the wrong path?  How long will I circle round inside a maze without a glimmer of light in sight?  Whose wall am I trying to break through?  Someone else's?  Or one of my own?  When attempts to break through the wall of another heightens frustration, attempts to discover another wall of my own heightens my chance for success.


Story by story, you'll watch me work toward achieving goals beyond my reach.  Though my focus may shift from forging ahead, to backing up, to turning right or left in order to avoid hitting wall after wall—
I keep my eye on this goal:  Know thyself.


At those times when inner conflict is messing with my mind, my think tank reacts like a traffic jam during a blizzard.


Let's say inner conflict creates a traffic jam inside your head, which causes your decision making skills to freeze.  How long will you choose to stay stuck inside your stalled vehicle, honking your horn to no avail?  At what point will you consciously choose to make better use of your brain in hopes of getting yourself to a warm, secure place instead of wringing your hands worriedly over who's going to save you from freezing to death, all alone?


During those decades when denial had blinded me to the excess baggage that I'd lugged forward through each stage of life, I'd no clue that my clarity was impaired.  Upon awakening to the fact that clarity is drugged by denial, I was shocked to learn that—
My ability to thrive depends on exhuming 'secrets' too painful to bear as a child.


During recent years I've been reading about the brain and asking positively focused minds to help me unlock mental blocks.  That was not always so.  For quite a while I'd looked to sleuths for guidance and support, who'd proved to be more confused than me.


As this is not the first mental block that my think tank has unlocked, instinct suggests that I stay tuned to this wave length until the bully, haunting me, is exorcised, once and for all.


Oh yes, please note that I'm conscious of this fact:  Some of what I say may inspire you to tune in to my quest while other thoughts may turn you off.  Either way, I'm eager to know what's on your mind. :-) Annie
