I've been musing over the space between the atoms. Once I had a science teacher, or from a book--I don't remember where the information came from, explain how far apart the nucleus of an atom (comprised of the protons and neutrons) is from the electrons.
Picture a professional football field. In the center of the field is a football: this is the nucleus. The electrons are tennis balls orbiting around in the outer area of the stadium seats. That leaves a whole lot of unaccounted for space. If you think about all that emptiness, why don't we fall through everything? There is more space than mass going on here.
It has to be our minds believing that there is enough mass in atoms to create solid surfaces. But the reality is that there is more space in a tree trunk then mass. Shouldn't the tree look like a ghost? Shouldn't we fall right through it if we lean against it? Slipping through makes more sense than being able to use it as a place to rest our backs on.
Also, from what I understand of quantum physics, our thoughts can alter our football fields. We can increase the nutritional value of food by giving thanks before eating. We can turn water molecules from gross, ugly structures to beautiful pieces of art. We can transform our diseased body into one of health by focusing our thoughts on love, joy, the health that we already possess, and even laughter.
I'm not quite sure how these two ideas effect one another, the empty space and the power of our thoughts, but I suspect that they do. There is room for change because there is so much space.
Bringing this altogether, it is obvious that we create our circumstances. If we have such powerful minds that we actually believe that emptiness with a dash of atoms equals solid surfaces, then we can create anything we want.
What are you going to create today?
