Gratitude is an approach to life that frees us from unconscious reactions to likes and dislikes. It supports the experience of equanimity and the realization that life is good. There is always something to be grateful for. Why not focus there?

The direction of our life experience follows the starting point in our consciousness-our thoughts, moods, and beliefs precede our words and actions. We can see where we are headed if we observe where we are right now. We cannot get to lasting happiness without starting from contentment.

The spiritually awake person knows that when the word leaves our mouth it carries with it divine power. It goes forth precisely as we have sent it. It will blossom and bear fruit according to its nature. Its nature is of the thought, the belief, and the intention it carries.

Control of speech harnesses soul power. Like the small rudder that turns a ship, conscious, truthful speech can turn our life around.
