Thought for the Day

The deed, the work in which the hands are engaged, is the source of happiness or misery. You assert that you are happy, anxious and afraid, or that you are in trouble. And most often, we attribute the cause of these expressions to someone other than ourselves. This is incorrect; happiness and misery are due to our own actions. Whether you choose to accept or reject this truth, you will experience the consequences of your action. This is the law of nature. You may not believe in summer or winter, in fire or rain, but you cannot escape from heat and cold. They affect you anyway. Therefore, the virtuous and wise direct their activities along proper lines. Assimilate these lessons and demonstrate their effect in your thoughts, words and translate them into action!
