 |   Theses are my thoughts and ramblings as I forge my way through this thing they call life. |
| Today's blog.... Blog City – Day 271 Buddha said, "We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves." Do you believe this is true? I agree with the first part - we are shaped by our thoughs and we do become what we think. The rest is a bit confusing as I am not sure I would want to see joy casting a shadow that never leaves unless the sunny disposition of being joy filled acts to light your inner being... but then I would see no shadows as the light would be emanating from within not from an external source that would cast the shadows. I believe that living in joy and being content with what we have is a choice and in that choice we are true to our feelings and our thoughts. We shimmer as a light in a dark world as God moves through us and touches the lives we interact with - drawing them in with the power of the positive and chasing the negative to the outer reaches to hide in shadows. |
