You become your thoughts

I was reading an interview of Quincy Jones about his weirdest recollections of Michael Jackson at Men.Style.Com. He was talking about Michael Jacksons transformation into a white man, his death and other weird things he did.

It's mostly weird stuff about Michael Jackson he was talking about, but the one thing that really got my interest in the whole interview was when Quincy Jones said that he has been in the hands of Nobel doctors at the Karolinska hospital in Stockholm. He said that he has learned so much about the human mind and body and that the doctors there talk about how you become your thoughts.

It starts with one thought and if you sit there and stay hung up on one negative thought, you will become that thought. That if you start thinking about darkness instead of light, or fear instead of love, you'll get in trouble.

While this is nothing new to me. It kind of sums up the whole life of Michael Jackson. It seems like it's one whole insecurity after another. His nose job and his bleaching to become white so that he won't be black. It's kind of crazy since I happen to think he was more handsome before his nose job and his bleaching.

Then there was his Neverland Ranch and playing with kids. Most people say it was because he never really had a childhood. But as Quincy Jones recommended a book called Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart. The book says that the statute of limitation has expired on all childhood traumas.

Quincy says in the interview, "Get you stuff together and get on with your life. Stop whinin' about what's wrong, because everybody's had a rough time, in one way or another."

Profound.
