Happiness
Well...I'm up and back at it once again...thanks... Lord for life and breath...everytime I pickup the newspaper, read the news on the internet or just watch the local news...death becomes us in some shape or form...we seek always to answer this question...Why can't we just get along?...Is it that difficult...obviously it is...in a world of power and greed...the equation of those that have and then those that don't seem to rule our consciousness and we base our happiness on preceived standards...set by others.
I'm guilty as well...for accepting that status quo for most of my adult life...however...things have changed with me in the last two years...I appreciate happiness in the little things...I cherish happiness in the persons that I'm in contact with...and my soul loves happiness in its life...so I create it, breathe it and cultivate it each and every day...instead of always complaining when things goes wrong or I don't get my way...instead I look at the bright side of each situation and in each day...turn a cheek one more time when someone upsets me...having happiness in my life has made me a calmer person...a nicer person...a "get along" person.
If you seek happiness...seek you, define all the things that you make you happy...and gradually do these things each day...and I'll bet...you'll smile more...feel free of some of the baggage you carry around...but most of all...being in tune with happiness and accepting you...for you...will help eradicate that question of...Why can't we just get along?
Today...I'll be pondering on "Thoughts to Ponder" courtesy of author Jay Jay...some of the things are easily said...but they're achievable...if the application of one thoughts and deeds are exemplified and manifested in our daily lives...
Do more than belong, participate. Do more than care, help. Do more than believe, practice. Do more than be fair, be kind. Do more than forgive, forget. Do more than dream, work.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who make excuses and those who get results. An excuse person will find any excuse for why a job was not done, and a results person will find any reason why it can be done. Be a creator, not a reactor.
To speak ill of others is a dishonest way of praising ourselves ... let us be above such transparent egotism.
