If mind was perfectly empty it would be as a video camera randomly filming anything, showing it to no one.
But it is not. Normally our life is very dramatic and drastic, full of emotionally charged happenings, hopes and broken illusions.
Our mind is not neutral. It gives importance to certain factors but not to others. Life and the meaning of life depends upon this "giving importance".
This process has two scopes, one external and one internal.
The external is when we decide about people, work, places, money. Internal is when we decide what to value and cherish.
When we make these decisions we normally relate to the reality as it is or as it should be. So it might seem as importance is given by external factors. And external factors can be very important. But the power of decision is in the mind.
