We all desire, but what distinguishes human beings is their intelligence. As free human beings we can use our unique intelligence to understand our world and ourselves.
I love smiles. That is a fact. How to develop smiles? There are a variety of smiles. Some smiles are sarcastic. Some smiles are artificial - diplomatic smiles. These smiles do not produce satisfaction, but rather fear or
suspicion. But a genuine smile gives us hove, freshness.
It is said that if you want to know what you were doing in the past, look at your body now; if you want to know what will happen to you in the future, look at what your mind is doing now.
It is ironic that more serious problem emanate form the more industrially advanced societies. Science and technology have worked wonders in many field, but the basic human problem remain.
Buddhism explains that our normal sate of mind is such that our thoughts and emotions are wild and unruly, and since we lack the mental discipline needed to tame them, we are powerless to control them. As a result, they control us.
With the realization of one's own potential and self-confidence is very important. That sort of confidence potential. On that basis, human beings can transform themselves by increasing the good qualities and reducing the negative qualities.
