171. There are many good things happening around us. We need to be able to pay more attention to good things. Paying attention to bad things can seriously affect our growth in the future.

We need to be able to do good things for the people around us.

If we stay away from good things, we may have to face the same difficulty.

Only by doing good things for others, we can get good things back from others to some extent.

We need to be able to stay away from bad things. By getting involved in bad things, we may lose our happiness and peace to some extent.

It is impossible to say how much loss we will suffer from getting involved in bad things. We may feel more attracted to bad things for the sake of momentary pleasures, but later all that may cause great sorrow and suffering.

By getting used to bad things, we may feel enslaved to bad things, and in such a situation, we may have to struggle a lot to give up slavery.

 May we all be able to focus on good things in the future.
