Praying and thinking positively

Think Positive

Think positive
Is what always echo in my ears,
Do no think otherwise
This will wipe away your fears.

The moment anything negative
Comes to your mind,
Immediately strike it out
By thinking about something positive.

While praying do not bring
Any negative words in your mind,
Keep chanting only positive
Peace and solace then you will find.

Say, we are stuck in the midst of a bad traffic,
We pray, ‘Oh God! I should not get late! ‘
See a negativity running in our mind
And by God, we are really late!

Our whole day goes bad
We keep blaming the fate like mad,
Instead, a positive prayer, Oh God, May I reach early
Might have worked out fairly!

As one says, its always easier said than done!
As its not really easy to eliminate negative thoughts from our mind,
But surely its possible to strike out the negative,
And thereby make our disturbing thoughts unwind.
