It is heart breaking to see the amount of people who live so
negatively. There are all of these negative
behaviors and thoughts we have been conditioned in for centuries like always
needed the best, always wanting to be the best, always wanting more, jealously
of our neighbor, etc. The underlying emotions
that come from said behaviors/thoughts like anger, blood-thirst, frustration, sadness,
fear, maliciousness, are bring our society down. When we will be grateful for what we have? When will we be grateful for who we have? What we will love ourselves?
To instead be grateful for what and who we have and to look
at through eyes of more positive emotions (kindness, compassion, mindfulness,
love, etc.), we open up so many more possibilities for ourselves. We allow ourselves a better quality of life
and we allow ourselves to experience more peace in the world we live in.
Imagine if every time you saw something from a negative
point of view you practiced always looking for the silver lining. Or, if every time you experienced a negative
emotion you changed your perspective and took on a positive emotion. Imagine if this became your habit. Imagine your mind and body automatically
doing this for you. Imagine if this
became your neighbor’s habit and the people you work with. What if it were habit for all those that you
serve and all those that serve you?
Living with compassion.
The more compassionate, kind, caring and loving person I become, the
less evil I see.
Change your perspective, change your life. What did you practice today?
Your posts always make me think. You have a great way to look at things. I try to be positive everyday. I have recently started writing in a more positive light or at least trying to. I suffer greatly everyday from depression and writing is how I try to change things for myself and hopefully for anybody that reads my writings. I have nobody to serve nor anyone to serve me. I have lost a lot but your words are inspirational and touch my heart. Thank you.
