To be happy or suffer for a while - which?

A fool is happy unlit his mischief turns against him.
And a good man may suffer until his goodness flowers.

-- Dhammapada 119-120

I Am as great as I think I Am. - Iyanla Vanzant

It is in our minds that we individual create our world and can collectively develop or destroy it.

I will STOP what is no longer good for me.

That is easier said than done, believe me, I know. However I also know that most of us know exactly what needs to change in our lives. However most times we are in denial about our addiction to the comfort of the blame game hence we continue in live in pain with whatever we say we would like to change.

Anything in our life can be changed but ONLY when we make CHOICE to take full responsibility for whatever is happening and then another CONSCIOUS CHOICE to change the BELIEF that promote the BEHAVIOR.
