MISCELLANEOUS THOUGHTS
Thoughts are mental treasures of
various types. They are everybody’s possession. Even very small children have
unexpressed thoughts. But adults are full of thoughts both silent and spoken. These
thoughts are related to life’s innumerable activities. They may be abstract, concrete,
vague, solid, critical, creative, analytical, reflective, emotional, useful,
foolish, wise, relevant, abstract,
practical, etc.
According to a relevant quote :
thoughts are the mental processes of our mind, expressing ideas, beliefs,
judgments and interpretations , shaped by experience and culture. You can read
or listen to thoughts of great minds on
anything and every subject .
Here are a few miscellaneous thoughts
that can enrich and enlighten our minds.
