this is a quote from the Dali Lama, what is great about him is that you
interpret it for you. My thought is this: we are the result of what we have thought by getting it taught to us and trying to be like everyone else, being told how to act etc...etc..
What we think we become, which I am living proof of, I always used to have negative, angry, depressed and so on and so on thoughts.
and look at what I was once. that obviously has all changed now,
well, I do get mad once in awhile, or sad, but my thoughts are always postitive ones no matter the situation.
This is what keeps me sane. LOL!!! and also show those younger to us
that things in life could be alot worse. It also allows oneself to feel compassion and not feel guilty. finally!

what if your interpretation is wrong?
If it is to be interpreted for you, by you, how can it be wrong?
If it keeps you sane, I am all for it.
first of what is all this anonymous posting?
The meaning of interpretation is: an ascription of a particular meaning or significance to something.
My interpretation to me works for me so in my eyes I am not wrong, would I not be the person I am today without it?
If someone sees it as something else and it works for them they are not wrong.
There is no wrong or right answer. It also helps to accept the fact that people in our lives will have different viewpoints, wisdom, etc
and know that it is okay.
as we are our own person.
So are there ANY right or wrong answers?
I don't think there are any wrong answers being that you make of it what you, yourself interpret and then become.

I say this, if it works for you in a postive healthy way then yes it is right.
If if works for you in a negative crappy way then no it is wrong for you.
I suppose it is all about trial and error, figuring out what works and what doesn't.
Some of you go to church and it works for you.
I don't go to church because it doesn't work for me.
But neither of us is right or wrong.
