By all means be as vigilant as you can while still remembering and acknowledging we are frail creatures for whom negativity is a reflection of the world in which we live.

Individually we can effect a measure of change withing ourselves but there would be no point trying to extrapolate the principle to the whole world because we're all individuals at an individual level of spiritual progress.

Expect nothing of others.

Wise observation which seems to be based on the "Law of Attraction".

It makes me wonder, how many times did Buddha surround himself in White Light so as to protect himself?

When Jesus went on his way to be arrested and executed, what were his thoughts..... to do the will of his Father.

A reminder of what was 'said' in the opener.....

You have always existed and you will always continue to exist.
You have always thought and you will always continue to think.

For you are mind, you are consciousness.
Your consciousness is evolving,
your consciousness is growing,
your consciousness is moving, never stagnating.

You cannot stay where you are. It is not possible.
Progress is the only answer.

But you yourself determine your rate of progress with your thoughts.
Your thoughts are the most powerful things you have.

Use them well.

It does not matter that it did not come from you. The point is you put it out there for everyone to see and you did not have to do that. I think that was wonderful of you to do that. Thank you for that.
I woke up this morning and I said to myself remember good thoughts. I did that last night as well. I will keep doing it every day to get into the habit of it.

thank you - That's very generous.

My approach is to comment about issues that can apply to anyone and mostly I focus on my particular fields of interest. If I stumble on something helpful I like to share it and it's comforting to receive positive feedback - thank you again.
