We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with an impure mind
And trouble will follow you.
As the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart.
We are what we think.
All that we are arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Speak or act with a pure mind.
And happiness will follow you.
As your shadow, unshakeable.
How can a troubled mind understand the way?
Your worst enemy cannot harm you
As much as your own thoughts
If you leave them unguarded.

I find that many times my first reaction to a person is to be negative. I don't plan this, and I wish that the opposite were true.
Perhaps its the times we live in but I find a lot to be negative about. I wish it weren't true and that peace could reign.
