"ants on the wall," how to deal with all the parts of your mind, negative and not

ants on the wall

like

ants on the wall

crawl one

by one

steadily sprawling their straight

marching wavelength

of amplitude

maybe five in a row trailing

across the

white popcorn ceilings and

walls sturdy and firm

,

my thoughts hike

carefully, thoughtfully

all over my cerebrum

across my lobes

through my

white matter ceilings and

walls mushy and immortal.

how i despise those ants sometimes

how addictive and attractive one moment

how draining some days

how seducing those ants sometimes

how piercingly sympathetic in understanding

how those ants lighten up and enthrall

and nourish and fuel my being

my awe, my purpose, my existence.

wouldn't be the

same without those

ants on my wall

it's easy to get antsy from whatever it is you are dealing with. although you can't really control what cards you are dealt, you can control how your cards are dealt with.

humans are so unique, apart from other creatures, because we have influence on how we can see the world. it's all in our heads. so how do we control how we deal with our dealt cards? remember these simple facts about ants in your household.

when you see this phenomenon of ants crawling on your wall, one by one, thereby making you crazily antsy, let me offer a bit of advice, although it's okay to be antsy.

1. perceive. the quickest way to get rid of them is not to kill them with that old piano book. it's not pesticides, it is certainly not RAID.

(RAID lies to the public for advertising reasons. it will give you a false sense of control).

that is exhausting, artificial, and it's certainly one of the most stupidest ways to make yourself unhealthy. the quickest way is not to rebuke them for existing on your wall, where it's supposed to be squeaky clear, to simply let them march. let them trod along their little popcorn matter linings, and to allow them to pass through.

make sure you do not jump to conclusions. maybe it isn't so bad. naturally, maybe you imagined some of them, so in reality, there are only three ants instead of five.

just because an amount of ants are passing on your wall, doesn't mean that your entire house is a pest nest.

2. recognize. because after all, it is summer, where they are naturally bound to exist. let them flow across your wall, as well as acknowledge nothing is permanent.

3. appreciate. and while you're at it, you might as well sit back in your office desk chair, and enjoy the spectacle. take a picture of one if you think it's cute, or savor it whether or not you like it. after all, it is these little moments that make your life living. although they don't define you, their existence's diversity and naturalness is a core beauty of humanness.

your walls will be so much better and your house less toxic and a warm, loving, connected environment, 100% guaranteed, or you get your money back.
