Negativity - People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom? ~Thich Nhat Hanh~

Blame

When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, 
you don't blame the lettuce. 
You look into the reasons it is not doing well. 
It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. 
You never blame the lettuce. 
Yet if we have problems with our friends or our family, 
we blame the other person. But if we know how to take care of them, 
they will grow well, like lettuce. 
Blaming has no positive effect at all,
nor does trying to persuade using reason and arguments. 
That is my experience. No blame, no reasoning, 
no argument, just understanding. If you understand, 
and you show that you understand, you can love, 
and the situation will change. 

~Thich Nhat Hanh~

      

 
 
TRUTH - Truth is often defined not by ourselves, but by others. It takes a real determination to begin the search  for truth. And... it is a very difficult search I assure you. There is so much to wade through. There are so  many opinions and saying do this or do that... We always think we have enough time. However...Do we really? How far are you willing to reach deep inside yourself? Are you willing to really think? Are you  willing to seek so that you may find? It is very easy to just skim the surface and not make any real changes in ourselves. It is easy to simply pay lip service and present an illusion to the world. If that is your attitude, then look no further, you have made your choice. Just remember though, illusions have a way of crumbling sooner or later. If you want to  begin a soul search, then do it now and leave  the  games behind. Use this lifetime wisely.
