Thoughts and Words have Power.
They can either Hurt or Heal.
Choose Wisely.

“Words have the power to both destroy and heal. 
When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.”

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. 
The mind is everything. What we think we become.”

“Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.”

“You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”
“All wrong-doing arises because of mind. 
If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?” 

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. 
When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.”

“He is able who thinks he is able.”

Let Go of Fear.

The Truth will Always be Revealed.
Always believe your own Truth.
“Three things cannot be long hidden: the Sun, the Moon, and the Truth.”

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.

Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many

Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.

Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders

Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”

You, Yourself, deserves your Love and Affection
Self Love is the most Deserving Love
“You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”
