"Say yes to life. And if one is aware, then one will be surprised that many times we unnecessarily say no... And we harm nobody except ourselves by saying that. No is fear-oriented; yes is love.
When you say yes, you are in a loving mood; whenever you are in a loving mood, you say yes - they both go together. When you say no, you reject life, and when you reject life, life rejects you. Then one becomes more and more sour, more and more bitter, and then there is a vicious circle. When you are bitter you say no more; when you say no more, life goes on rejecting you. In fact it is not life that rejects you; it is your rejection that is reflected by life. It is your no that resounds back to you.
Life is a mirror - it simply mirrors. If you say yes to it, it says yes. If you sing a song, it sings a song. If you are ready to dance with it, it dances with you. It all depends on you: life simply goes on echoing you - so never blame life. Life is absolutely innocent, as innocent as a mirror. Change your face; the mirror is never at fault. If you don't look beautiful in the mirror don't try to destroy the mirror - change your face.
That's what I mean: when you start saying yes you start changing your face - from fear to love, from rejection to acceptance. And that is the real transformation."
