Thoughts Quotes

“Thoughts do not change probabilities in the real world. While worrying about someone might make you feel like you are doing something to protect them, in reality you are only training your brain to reinforce a cycle of worry.”

“A fundamental principle in spirituality emphasizes that we are not our thoughts. This concept is essential to initiate inner change. Buddhism teaches that attachment to our thoughts perpetuates suffering. Buddhist practices aim to observe, examine our thoughts, revealing their ephemeral and changing nature, and that they do not define who we are.”

“In life, we sometimes have to place ourselves under a microscope and examine our thoughts, our heart, and our spirit. When we do this, we tear down the walls we have built to shelter ourselves from becoming vulnerable to love we have for others. We have to tear down these walls brick by brick. And, if in the end, someone knows our thoughts about them, our love for them, and how our spirit soars for them, then we have to know within our being that it is all right.”
