Your thoughts construct patterns like scaffolding in your mind. You are really etching chemical patterns. In most cases, people get stuck in those patterns, just like grooves in a record, and they never get out of them.

The eye sees all, but the mind shows us what we want to see.

Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.

Happiness depends more upon the internal frame of a person's own mind than on the externals in the world.

Frame your mind to mirth and merriment which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.

All things are ready, if our mind be so.
