Bravo, Nisha. ~~~ We are indeed the true creators of our own emotions, we form these emotions from the messages we listen to. Much like the ghosts of fear, failure or a restless heart we create them as well. Happiness is truly a state of mind and it trickles down to every pore on our entire body. For a long time I waited for the world around me to change, but unfortuantely it never did and sometimes it even got worse. Not until I myself took a different outlook on life as a whole; by looking for the good things in my life happening all around me did things changed for the better. In my realm of true peace and joy, I look for reasons to do good things for other people just for the sake of doing it. It is with reckless abandonment that I do it with a pure heart, if the only thing I get in return is a smile. Then I can consider this as a fair exchange, because I have had others reach out to me when I needed help but I never got to say ‘thank you.’
