Dealing with bad thoughts

We cannot prevent birds from flying over our heads, but we can keep them from making nests on top of our heads. Similarly, bad thoughts sometimes appear in our mind, but we can choose wether we allow them to live there, to create a nest for themselves and to breed evil deeds.

Attaining joy for dummies

Joy can be real only if people look upon their life as a service, and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happiness.

Leo Tolstoi

Tolstoy this sneaky guy, I LOVE hime!

Honestly, I have to agree to a 100% to this! You have to have something to do in your life, not just yourself. If you think about you own happiness all the time, you can’t achieve happiness.

If you care for a family, lead a company, train your body as an athlete, reign a country or do something other meaningfull (to you!), you can attain joy!

Why not just be happy? :)

If you want to be happy, be.
