We Become What We Look At Most.

Whenever We Condemn, We Cloak The World In Pain.

Boredom Or Discontent Is Useful To Me When I Acknowledge It And See Clearly My Assumption That There's Something Else I Would Rather Be Doing. In This Way Boredom Can Act As An Invitation To Freedom By Opening Me To New Options And Thoughts. For Example, If I Can't Change The Activity, Can I Look At It More Honestly?

I Sometimes React To Making A Mistake As If I Have Betrayed Myself. My Fear Of Making A Mistake Seems To Be Based On The Hidden Assumption That I Am Potentially Perfect And That If I Can Just Be Very Careful I Will Not Fall From Heaven. But A 'mistake' Is A Declaration Of The Way I Am, A Jolt To The Way I Intend, A Reminder I Am Not Dealing With The Facts. When I Have Listened To My Mistakes I Have Grown.

Just When I Think I Have Learned The Way To Live, Life Changes And I Am Left The Same. The More Things Change The More I Am The Same. I Am What I Started With, And When It Is All Over I Will Be All That Is Left Of Me.

The Components Of Happiness Are Quite Simple. Happiness Is Gentleness, Peace, Concentration, Simplicity, Forgiveness, Humor, Fearlessness, Trust, And Now. In Its True Form Each Quality Includes All The Rest, For Happiness Is Whole, And One Feels Whole When Genuinely Happy.
