we are what we think

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,
just 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,
just as your shadow, unshakeable.

Buddha, translated by Karma Yonten Senge

Commentary:


Its all about attitude and I believe its possible to change your attitude about anything if you try hard enough.
