Every event we experience, every situation and state we find ourselves in, are merely impressions in our minds. Our minds are sensitive to everything; illness and health, wealth and poverty, success and failure, and so on. Thoughts and desires, whose origins we cannot trace, influence our actions. A person may suddenly find themselves with the desire to do something. Some live with the hope of starting a business and becoming rich despite having nothing, while others constantly live in fear of losing what they have; some live with their dreams, some with their fears.
Thoughts and feelings shape our reality. Most people are unaware that they are framing their own reality. Desires and thoughts that have been planted grow insidiously over the years, affecting dozens of people and events that enter one's life.
If we pause for a moment and reflect on all the desires and thoughts awakened within us over the years, how they came to us, and all the people, circumstances, and perhaps 'coincidences' that directed us to them, and most importantly, if we examine their source, we will see that what we call 'fate' or 'destiny' has framed the picture of our lives using our desires and thoughts.
Two different perspectives may emerge from this; some may believe that our destiny is a product of our thoughts, while others may think that our thoughts are a tool, perhaps a clue, to write the destiny that has been drawn for us. What does it matter if there are differing views? What matters is being able to live consciously, to meet everything that arises internally and externally with awareness. The essence is to use our words carefully and delicately, to learn to live not with fears but with dreams.
Those who do not know the importance of living with positive and beautiful thoughts blindly follow their own fate, while those who know its power and become masters of words are a source of happiness for themselves and their surroundings.
