Guest guest Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 My humble pranams at the divine lotus feet of our ever present beloved bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba! Downward Spirals " We all tend to wallow in out failures when we lose confidence in ourselves. Teens may be even more prone to it than older people. Something goes wrong, causing us to question our own worth. Then one thing leads to another in a vicious cycle. Awareness of our failure cuts the legs out from under our resolve to succeed. We get deppressed. We begin to see our failure as who we are, and that awareness keeps us stuck there. In contrast, Buddhism teaches that an awareness of how bad things are should be exactly what causes us to change " Om Sri Sai Ram! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
