Summary

This quote emphasizes the power and autonomy of one's own mind. It suggests that we have control over what thoughts, influences, and beliefs we allow into our mental space.

We have the ability to filter out harmful or negative influences, only permitting entry to those ideas, emotions, and perspectives that align with our values and bring us positivity and growth. Ultimately, it is through our own permission and vigilance that we can maintain a healthy and peaceful state of mind.

Enough! we're tired, my heart and I.We sit beside the headstone thus,And wish that name were carved for us.The moss reprints more tenderlyThe hard types of the mason's knife,As Heaven's sweet life renews earth's lifeWith which we're tired, my heart and I ....In this abundant earth no doubtIs little room for things worn out:Disdain them, break them, throw them by!And if before the days grew roughWe once were loved, used, - well enough,I think, we've fared, my heart and I.
