Desire Negative Sometimes

More From Dalai Lama

Self satisfaction alone cannot determine if a desire or action is positive or negative. the demarcation between a positive and a negative desire or action is not whether it gives you a immediate feeling of satisfaction, but whether it ultimately results in positive or negative consequences.

Too many women waste their lives grieving because they do not have something other people tell them they should want. whether you are happy or not depends to some degree upon outsward circumstances, but mostly it depends how you choose to look at thing syourself, whether you measure what you have or what you have not.

The super-salesman neither permits his subconscious mind to "broadcast" negative thoughts nor give expression to them through words, for the reason that he understands that "like attracts like" and negative suggestions attract negative action and negative decisions from prospective buyers.

People get sick and sometimes they get better and sometimes they don't. and it doesn't matter if the sickness is cancer or if it's depression. sometimes the drugs work and sometimes they don't. sometimes the drugs work for a while and then they stop. sometimes the alternative stuff works and sometimes it doesn't. and sometimes you wonder if no outside interference makes any difference at all; if an illness is like a storm, if it simply has to run its course and, at the end of it, depending on how robust you are, you will be alive. or you will be dead.

Country Men Tears
The few own the many because they possess the means of livelihood of all ... the country is governed for the richest, for the corporations, the bankers, the land speculators, and for the exploiters of labor. the majority of mankind are working people. so long as their fair demands - the ownership and control of their livelihoods - are set at naught, we can have neither men's rights nor women's rights. the majority of mankind is ground down by industrial oppression in order that the small remnant may live in ease.

The way we've been neglecting to support our libraries throughout the country is a shame.

I think it's very important to remember that so much of the work that gets done between countries is not done at the level of presidents, but is done within various agencies, whether it's law enforcement or economic ministries. and when they establish relationships and systems of communications and shared projects and shared visions, those structures continue even after any particular president is gone. it builds trust and understanding between countries that are critically important.
