Is Life a Struggle?

The feelings you experience depend on the way you put yourself in front of what happens in your life. It is how you face people and situations that creates what manifests in the deep of your heart, giving rise to feelings. If your attitude is aggressive, your soul will seldom experience peace because that particular facet of your personality creates a special kind of emotional environment that influences your whole way of being. Your spirit is agitated, even the traits of your face may have a tendency to assume a sullen expression. As a consequence, your days become unpleasant because you are living them as if you were on a perpetual battlefield. Have you heard some people repeat, with a sort of gloomy satisfaction, that “life is a struggle”? It can certainly be, if you believe it is, and allow it to be. But it is not Life’s Rule. It is a man-made conditioning directive!
