Twisted Human Thoughts

We live in a paradise all our life long, without having the vision to see it or the wisdom to perceive it.

We get drown in our day to day narrow life paths. We do not take time to look at the beautiful things around, these exquisite flowers that grew by themselves on the border of the road, this beautiful sun so bright that we can not face it directly, this beautiful music we listen to without perceiving the notes, these charming creatures that surround us and that we take for granted.

Instead of concentrating on all the enchanting matters around, we let our thoughts lead us to the dark corridors of negativity and pessimism. We negate all the beauty God created and we get ourselves into a state of denial. We concentrate on the small black spots and with practice, we teach ourselves to take pleasure in doing so.

The truth is it's not easy to learn pessimism. It's even an elaborate complicated process. It involves a lot of thinking and processing, and instead of taking things as they are, turning them again and again in our spirit and reaching to conclusions that have minimal probability to happen, then taking these conclusions as starting points for other endings that based on these have acceptable chances of happening, and repeat the process over till we get to a dark spot where the probability to get is high, but how? Based on the conclusions of the conclusions of the conclusions of the tiny probability that we based ourselves upon in the first place.

How's that for a twisted process? While all it takes to go the other path is a nice song hymn in the morning or a 5 minute walk in the sun or a beautiful word to a neighbor? Why not try the easiest process from time to time? Why not learn to be happy when it's so easy?
