"The more you nurture a feeling of loving-kindness, the happier and calmer you will be. Your basic outlook will remain calm and even if you hear a disturbing piece of news, it will not disturb you too much."
On the other hand, if you are predominantly unhappy on account of hatred or certain negative thoughts you harbor, then even when good news comes your way, it might disturb you even more. Since we are all looking for a happy life we would try to put our good thoughts to the best use possible, and try to minimize our negative thoughts. In this way we will train our minds"
