Which of the following phrases is correct: "to come to mind" or "to come to one's mind"?
If both are possible, do they have the same meaning?
If not, when should I use each of them?
Would you please give me some examples?
Thank you very much for the help.

I don't believe that I've heard the latter used but then I can't state absolutely that I haven't.
@paok70,
Two usages seem all correct.for example as follows:
A thousand confused thoughts come to one's mind.
The title just will not come to mind.
Stumble It!
