Today I was online reading something, and I was *so* tempted to respond in argument with something that someone said.
Even knowing better, I find it hard to stop myself, all too often.
And my particular reason for desiring to restrain myself is this —
A) We greatly create our own experience of life (our reality) by the thoughts we harbor in our heads. Some say these thoughts actually create reality, but for certain they create our experience of life.
B) If you create ill-will thoughts, no matter where you intend to aim them, you are creating ill-will thoughts. And it’s in YOUR head.
C) You suffer as a result of the painful thoughts in your head, and it paints your picture of your universe, and you create your painful experience of life.
D) The more you focus thought on negative stuff (problems and pain), the more you overlook (or miss) many of your opportunities, and you miss out on enjoying the bliss you could be enjoying from your life.
E) So it boils down to — It’s your gun. It’s your foot. Do What Thou Wilt.
Want to live in a world of devils? Or a world of bliss? Although it may seem strange the first time you hear this, with a bit of practice, it is actually possible to control your own mind, and your thoughts WILL create your happiness (or suffering) in this life.
(A word to the wise is sufficient. Let he that hath ears hear!)
