awareness + positive thoughts = happy life

"the most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. when mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers." -thich nhat hanh.
to be mindful is to be continual aware of the thoughts and situations flowing through your mind. i know, when i was trying to go to sleep last night, random stories and thoughts kept working through my busy little mind. as soon as i became aware of the thoughts, i could control what it was that my mind had come up with. my awareness helped control my thoughts to those of rest. finally, i guess i must have fallen asleep.
i believe that, the thoughts that we think, whether good nor bad, are  released into the universe and help to control the direction of our individual pursuits. the law of attraction, if you will...from 'the secret.'
the ability to control and be aware of your constanting changing mind states, and the power to change them into positive, beautiful thoughts is for me, a wonderful place to be in.
