Our Daily Thoughts

If we replaced all the thoughts we have each day about the things that we have no control over, the things we worry about but cannot change, or the things we think might go wrong and thought instead about all the blessings in life, such as laughter, smiles, breath, a beating heart, a bed to sleep in, a computer to connect us to others, food in our stomachs, and that we have a home over our heads, we would feel more joy in our lives.
If we replaced all the thoughts we have about wanting this or that with thoughts about how much we already have so much more than we need, we would be more content.
If we thought kind thoughts about those few people in life that act like a thorn in the flesh instead of burning up inside at each thing we take as an offense, if we prayed for them in genuine love each time they said or did something to tick us off, we would find our hearts softened towards them.
Most of us think about our actions to some degree, knowing that if we do this, this or that will be the result, but how about thinking about our thoughts, what is in our hearts, unspoken ? Our daily thoughts make us who we really are.
