Count your blessings

Count Your Blessings

By Kelly Johnston

Count your blessings instead of your crosses;
Count your gains instead of your losses.

Count your joys instead of your woes;
Count your friends instead of your foes.

Count your smiles instead of your tears;
Count your courage instead of your fears.

Count your full years instead of your lean;
Count your kind deeds instead of your mean.

Count your health instead of your wealth;
Love your neighbor as much as yourself

Voice Inside

There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
"I know that this is right for me
I know that this is wrong"
No teacher,preacher,parent,friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you-just listen to
The voice that speaks inside.

Gain and loss of Meditation

Buddha was asked,"What have you gained from meditation?"
He replied "Nothing!"
However Buddha said,"Let me tell you what I lost:
Anger,Anxiety,Depression,Insecurity,Fear of old age, and Death."
