Happiness is a manner of traveling

Since we can control our thoughts, we have the ability to influence our feelings and thus change our attitude. By making changes in our thoughts, attitudes and beliefs our life will begin to change. Seek a mind-set with a balanced perspective looking fondly on the past, enjoying the present and setting goals to strive for in the future. Remember that happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.  

May all beings have true happiness.

To love oneself

I believe there is a certain mind-set that needs to change within you in order to be happy with the person that you are or have become. If not, a certain mind-set is needed to beat the system and ultimately win that stare down competition with your mirror.

Now why do you need to love yourself?

Fully and truly loving yourself will never lead to anything less than complete joy. With full belief in yourself and who you are you will have the confidence, internal power, and endurance to not only reach your true potential, but constantly exist in that state, and be able to make any dream or goal become an accomplished reality. Love for the self is being able to see someone with a strong mind, free spirit and a love life attitude. It is the ultimate source for joy, success, and truth. Lack of love for the self is the easiest source for pain and misery. To love oneself doesn’t mean doing the morally right thing and pleasing everyone all of the time. To truly and completely love yourself means you are man enough to face the music. Know your faults. Know your darkest qualities and never forget what The Universe told you in the light. Accept yourself for the person that you are. You are.

As Oscar Wilde stated: “To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.”

Love is not easily definable. LOVE IS. However, it does have certain characteristics. Self-love is a consuming passion for your own happiness. It is an ongoing choice you make to be glad to be alive, here on Earth, in your own body.

Conscious creation

The moment during the day when we very first open our eyes and come into consciousness is a precious opportunity. It sets the tone for all that comes after it, like the opening scene in a film or novel. At this moment, our ability to create the day is at its most powerful, and we can offer ourselves fully to the creative process by filling this moment with whatever inspires us most. It may be that we want to be more generous, or it may be that we want to be more open to beauty in our daily lives. Whatever the case, if we bring this vision into our minds at this very fertile moment, we empower it to be the guiding principle of our day.

We can reaffirm our vision or affirmation as we shower and eat breakfast, as well as recalling it at various times throughout the day. We can write it down and carry it with us on a little slip of paper if this helps. Simply by being aware of those first moments, we set the stage for a more conscious, enlivened experience, and we become active participants in the creation of our lives.

Athletes should read this

Athletes: Don’t take the sport you play for granted. Every time you play, you better be damn thankful that you get to do something you love. Don’t show up to practice complaining about not wanting to be there;

You’re there hopefully because you love it. Work hard every moment. Play every practice or game like it’s your last because it very well could be. When you finally reach the day that you can’t play, and can only watch, then you will know how much you love something that you once took for granted.

Be like water

By raising my level of consciousness, I become aware that I'm like a drop of water in a vast, divine ocean. Distinct yet immersed in something much larger than myself, while experiencing a higher level of awareness and caring. I recognize my connection to others and more. I perceive that I am not the only one who matters. I genuinely care about the good of all of Earth's creatures.

Live as water lives, since we are water. Let your thoughts and behaviors move smoothly in accordance with the nature of all things. Be true to your inner intentions. It is natural to trust in the eternal flow.

Trust and flow... Letting myself just go and be with my heart as the source...

Be love

Accept and love.
Open your eyes and see. 
All is one.
Love.
The universe conspires.
Open and absorb.
Do not instantly close doors, for you will block energy that is coming to you.
Be humble.
Nourish and extend.
For you will expand and grow.
Love and accept.

Love is everything.
Be love.
