Care for your mind. Train your mind to see the good in everything.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Positivity is a choice. One pure and positive thought may look like a tiny spark, but when nourished everyday, it can change your whole life!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Those who have a positive vision of themselves and situations in life are always happy. Happiness is not determined by what is happening around you, but rather what is happening inside you. The peace and the answers I need, none of that, comes from the outside.<\/p>\n<p>Listen within. A lot of pain we might be dealing with is really only thoughts. Thoughts are positive, or negative, and everywhere in between. Thoughts are energy. They have power to elevate and make you feel good or the power to sadden and make you feel bad and depressed.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When we talk to ourselves in our mind, we often talk to the most superficial aspects of our everyday personality: a stream of fears, complaints and mindless repetition of old things. If we talked that way to another human being, we would have to apologize!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_90522\" style=\"width: 567px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90522\" class=\"size-full wp-image-90522\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2.jpg\" alt=\"Care For Your Mind; Be like a butterfly; it only sits on beauty, not on rubbish\" width=\"557\" height=\"593\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2.jpg 557w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2-282x300.jpg 282w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-90522\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Illustration: Brahma Kumaris.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>So stop and be attentive to your thoughts and the voice of your heart.

Meditation trains the mind to consciously create the right type of thoughts. By taking charge, by listening and talking to our mind with love and respect, the soul is filled with spiritual power, which creates a very positive change in our personality and behavior. As this new habit of creating only positive thoughts settles inside us; we automatically start responding positively, even when negative situations arrive! <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Positive thoughts are like good seeds which, when planted, produce healthy, sweet fruit.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_90522\" style=\"width: 567px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90522\" class=\"size-full wp-image-90522\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2.jpg\" alt=\"Care For Your Mind; Be like a butterfly; it only sits on beauty, not on rubbish\" width=\"557\" height=\"593\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2.jpg 557w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2022\/06\/Thoughts2-2-282x300.jpg 282w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-90522\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Illustration: Brahma Kumaris.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><b>\u2018As you sow &#8211; so shall you reap.\u2019<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Concern for the quality of my thoughts and actions create success.
