How a Walk might Change Your Thoughts?

And I thought only our physical self walked.


I was walking today, trying to think over something and get a solution to a semi-complicated situation in my life. And suddenly I realized that there was something walking with me. Rather, there was something walking faster than me. That was my thought.


Yes, one of the reasons, why I wished to do a walk today, was to get my mind out from something, which has been bothering me for the past 24 hours. And you know what, in the process of trying to get out of something through walking, I started thinking about multiple things with every step I took. And before I knew it, I was in a mess.




I was walking with a friend for some time and had he not been there, I would have kept thinking about multiple things and my head would have busted for sure. However, once he left, I realized that I actually needed to be alone.


Today, I realized that you cannot run away from your thoughts. Our thoughts are too smart for us. Rather than walking away from them, you should walk with them. Maybe you will not find a solution of the wrong thoughts, all the time, but in the process of these thoughts coming in your mind, you might have an unexpected nice entry along the way.


There might be some good thoughts, which would be waiting for you in the queue (behind some bad ones). They would be waiting for you to open them up and get sweet memories out, which would be just the medicine to take care of all your worries (which the bad memories have created).


Screwed up was my future, multiple thoughts were coming up in my head and I was all alone at that time (once my friend left). Thought it could only get worse from here, when all of a sudden, a miracle happened.


It started when I remembered that tomorrow was a Saturday and a thought of one of my closest friends came in my mind. And the very next moment, I was staring at my phone and all the tensions started rushing out of my blood, as I could see the friend staring at me and telling me that do not forget to give me a reminder call or message or I will not go. I know that I would not be doing that reminder call for some time now (if not ever :(), but just that sweet thought put me out of my misery (I don’t know how, but it did).


I won’t say that the tensions of my life are over when that sweet thought arrived, as they are far from it. However, now, at least, it is the last thing on my mind. I am feeling better. Rather than concentrating on the thought, I came home and finished this content and a few others.


Being with yourself (through acts like walking) has a lot of benefits and today, I found out that fighting the irritating thoughts is one of them.


Note: This is not a story, which has come out from any writer or someone smart, so there are bound to be mistakes :( .. However, my idea is not to put up a correct English or a sensible article over here. My point is to put my thought over here. The idea is to make it as realistic as possible. And this is what I have done. I have written what has first come in my mind.
