Two sides of mind 2

So we have this individual creative process: 
In the soft mind of now we leave imprints which will harden and become our unavoidable "here and now" for some time in the future. The "here and now" we are in in this moment is the effect of imprints we made in our soft mind at some earlier moment.
Another way to describe this is to say that the situation we are in at present is the result of our earlier experiences and knowledge. Our experiences and knowledge are stored and processed in our memory. 
Your situation is different from mine because we have different experiences and knowledge. But if we are of the same generation and live in the same country we probably have a lot in common.
In every now our mind can be very active. Observations, thoughts, feelings and impulses can happen. Are all of the same importance? 
The decisive aspect for the future is the ethical quality. If we do good towards others now, we will experience good in the future. But if we do bad towards others in order to get good for ourselves, we will get a bad future. 
The process of soft mind imprints hardening into unavoidable "here and now" goes on always, independently of if we care or not. Usually we do not care much.
If we would take this process seriously we would try seriously to do good on all of the three levels of mind, words and actions.
