Today’s Thinking Out Loud reflection is on Lewis Carroll’s work, Alice in Wonderland. Alice in Wonderland is available for free download from Project Gutenberg here.
“Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole: she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. How she longed to get out of that dark hall, and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains, but she could not even get her head through the doorway; “and even if my head would go through,” thought poor Alice, “it would be of very little use without my shoulders. Oh, how I wish I could shut up like a telescope! I think I could, if I only knew how to begin.” For, you see, so many out-of-the-way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible.”
Note: All we have to do is to closely examine our lives and we will, like Alice, see that very few things indeed were really impossible. When we change our thinking from impossibility thinking to possibility thinking whole new universes open to us. We begin to see things that were always visible, yet they were invisible to us because we refused to see them. Take the can’t, don’t, impossible, and other negative words our of your vocabulary and send them packing. You’ve got a journey to take, people to me, adventures to experience.
