Looking For Happiness?


Everybody seeks happiness.

Although it is not often noticed that seeking itself is precisely the activity that veils the very happiness that is being sought.

When it is seen clearly that happiness is not to be found in any particular object, state or circumstance, a deep relaxation takes place.

This relaxation leaves us at the threshold of another possibility.

This possibility is felt as an invitation from an unknown and yet strangely familiar direction.

It is a call to return to our true home...

... the source of happiness.

A Reason, A Season or A Lifetime?

People come into your life...
... for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
.
When you know which one it is,
you will know what to do for that person.




When someone is in your life for a REASON,
it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty,
to provide you with guidance and support.

. To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.

. They may seem like a godsend.
And they are.

. They are there for the reason you need them to be.
..
. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part
or at an inconvenient time,

. This person will say or do something
to bring the relationship to an end.
.
Sometimes they die.

Sometimes they walk away.

Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realise is that our need has been met,
our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered
and now it is time to move on.


. Some people come into your life for a SEASON,
because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.

They bring you an experience of peace
or make you laugh.

They may teach you something you have never done.
.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.

Believe it, it is real.

But only for a season.

.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons.
.
Things you must build upon
in order to have a solid emotional foundation.

. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person.
.
And put what you have learned to use
in all other relationships and areas of your life.
.
.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
.
Thank you for being a part of my life,

. Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.
.

Every Body


My body is an instrument; I observe it…

My body is an instrument; listen to it!

Good or Bad News?


The bad news is time flies.


The good news is you're the pilot.
