JUNK ON STREET LIKE UNWANTED THOUGHTS

Walking down the street, I saw a spot on the pavement – must’ve been someone’s piece of gum. A little further were a few pebbles and then a torn piece of paper. Walked a ways further and noticed a big stain, coffee or something.

You know what those things reminded me of? Thoughts. Mostly unwanted thoughts. Silly, stupid, careless thoughts.

Wanna know what I did with the junk on the sidewalk? Absolutely nothing.

What ought we do with unwanted thoughts? Absolutely … you got it! Nothing!
