Only when goodness awakens within…

Hi all,
    Here’s another of Mata Amritandamayi’s famous quotes…

Only
when goodness awakens within, will one’s personality and actions
gain beauty and strength.
Amma (Mata Amritanandamayi Devi)

    When goodness awakens within, your personality and actions will gain in beauty, strength and understanding. You will understand whats good and bad. You will define what is good and bad. You will comprehend what is good and bad. Here, when I saw good and bad, I mean the good and bad ACCORDING to what YOU think; YOUR views on the matter.

    To awake your goodness, simply define what is good and bad, and look at the positive side of everything. Even a negative has a positive. Every black cloud has a silver lining! For hundreds, a black cloud brings sorrow and woe, since it indicates lack of sunshine. For millions, a black cloud initiates joy, happiness, and celebration, because it is the bringer of rain!

    Similarly, in everything you do, there is a good aspect and a bad aspect. What you do might be good or bad, where “good” and “bad” are defined by yourself and yourself alone with no one else’s intervention, but whether the deed be good or bad, when looked at from the worldly point of view, it has both yin, and yang.

    Dont consider the negatives. Consider the positives. Thus, you can awake the goodness within! Then, you will find beauty in your actions. You will find love in things previously despised! You will understand the subtle and austere beauty of our world! Love, love, love our world! Find your goodness, and keep at it! Why dont you make this world a better place for yourself?
