Lovely morning.We are affected by the words we encounter in our daily lives. We encounter words from watching the news on TV, reading books, encountering lines in films, and of course words we encounter in real life when we talk to someone or listen to a conversation someone else is having. Depending on the situation you are in at the time, a gentle, beautiful word can pierce your heart like a needle, or a seemingly blunt word can inspire your heart.
I feel that valuing and living with these rich words that we humans possess will lead to a life filled with happiness in our hearts. However, there may be a big difference between those who are exposed to great words and thoughts but do not act on them, and those who are exposed to great words and thoughts and can act on them while keeping their own axis firm, and from there on, their daily fulfilment may be very different. Perhaps the latter person has an ideal self that they want to be like, or they want to achieve this goal, or they want to master this thing, or they want to see this person’s smile, or they have various other things they want to be and do, and they are able to act towards that.
If you just spend your time in a given situation or environment without thinking about how you want to be, you may just end up feeling or thinking about something that happened or something in the past, or you may feel negative about the event and not be able to get out of it. However, if you have a firm picture of how you want to be in the future, such negative feelings may be sublimated over time and through your new actions.
To change your behaviour, you may have to change your stereotypical thoughts and assumptions, and to change your thoughts you may have to be able to control your emotions. To do this, you might have to cherish beautiful words, beautiful music, people you love and things you love that make you happy. And it might be a good idea to think sometimes that the existence of everything in front of you may not be taken for granted, but may exist by a series of miracles.
