PEACE PILGRIM'S WISDOM
Right Attitude Toward Life

•    Be willing to face life squarely and get down beneath the surface of life where the verities and realities are to be found.
•    Life is a series of tests;  but if you pass your tests, you look back upon them as good experiences .
•    Concealed in every new situation we face are a spiritual lesson to be learned and a spiritual blessing for us if we learn that lesson.
•    Each season of life is wonderful if you have learned the lessons of the season before. It is only when you go on with lessons unlearned that you wish for a return.
•    When you perceive that problems serve a purpose in your life, you will recognize that problems are opportunities in disguise.
•    Every problem that comes to us has a purpose in our life. Through problem solving we learn and grow.
•    If only you could see the whole picture, if you knew the whole story, you would realize that no problem ever comes to you that does not have a purpose in your life, that cannot contribute to your inner growth.
•    Recognize all problems, no matter how difficult, as opportunities for spiritual growth, and make the most out of these opportunities.
•    If you did not face problems you would just drift through life. It is through solving problems in accordance with the highest light we have that inner growth is attained.
•    A life without problems would be a barren existence, without the opportunity for spiritual growth.
•    Problems come when we live our lives out of harmony with higher laws- they come to push us toward harmony.
•    When societies are out of harmony, problems develop within the society -collective problems. Their purpose is to push the whole society toward harmony.
•    Collective problems must be solved by all of us, collectively, and no one finds inner peace who avoids doing his or her share in the solving of collective problems.
•    Many common problems are caused by wrong attitudes. People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them. Naturally, you won't be happy that way.
•    You can only be happy when you see things in proper perspective: all human beings are of equal importance in God's sight, and have a job to do in the divine plan.
•    It is an orderly universe, and the suffering that comes to us has a purpose in our lives -it is trying to teach us something. We should look for its lesson.
•    Every experience is what you make it and it serves a purpose. It might inspire you, it might educate you, or it might come to give you a chance to be of service in some way.
•    No problem is set before us that, with a proper attitude, we cannot solve. If a great problem is set before us, this indicates that we have a great inner strength to solve a great problem.
•    You must learn to forgive yourself as easily as you forgive others. And then take a further step and use all that energy that you used in condemning yourself for improving yourself .
•    Life is like a mirror. Smile at it and it smiles back at you.
