Problems Are Just Thoughts

I have a good story to illustrate this. There was a woman peacefully working in her garden...Until she saw a snake. Immediately, she became fearful. Her heart rate increased, her blood pressure increased, and her breathing became labored. She wanted to run, but felt paralyzed. She looked down on the snake again, and to her surprise, she realized it was just a garden hose. Well, immediately, her body began to calm as she laughed out loud at herself. All of the turmoil was just because of a thought, which when changed, made all of the difference. It only takes a second to change your mind. We are beyond our thoughts and words.
