The Problem With Your Thoughts

What's your problem?

Money, Love, Life?

Recession, Crises, War...

Food frescuras, or lack of food?

Pets, car, no car?

Health? Lack of Health?

Maybe your problem is someone...

spouse, kids, relatives...

sick parents

neighbors, friends,

no friends?

What are your problems?

Debts?

Or is it excessive spending?

Illness, depression, uneasiness?

Or are they lack of self-love? Lack of balance?

“Problems are part of life,” I've heard

and that hurt!

“Problems are everywhere,” I've been told

since I was old.

Then, I grew younger...

All lies, I've learnt!

The problem can only be

in one's thought!

Or not!

It's how you see!

Problems are like flies...

You shoo them, they go;

they may come back,

you either ignore or kill them,

Isn't that so?

Flies are only insects...

Problems are only facts.

Facts can be changed by your thoughts,

which transform your acts.

But you think problems are around you,

they come to get you,

they ambush,

they are evil

you feel this push

and suddenly you are ill!

You truly believe problems exist in your life

and this is all in your mind...

You create problems when you say,

“I have a problem today...”

You “own” your arthritis, your diabetes,

your debts, your bad day...

That's what you say!

“I have a problem today!”

The problem can only be

in one's thought!

Or not!

It's how you see!

Do you rather see challenges

or problems?

Nothing is really so big and external

that will swallow you!

Because you are already in, and eternal...

And what if it did? Hey!!!

You would disappear and so would your problems,

wouldn't they?

So,

What's your problem?

The Problem is With Your Thoughts...

Just change them!
