Goodness equals happiness…

Personal happiness arises from personal goodness. Only when
you are an internally good man or woman can you be a carefree
man or woman. – Vernon Howard

The root of all happiness lies in our being comfortable in our own skin. That comfort comes from a deep acceptance of ourselves. We’re more fully able to accept ourselves when we’re good.

Goodness means being truthful to ourselves and to all others. Goodness means taking care of ourselves and all those we encounter daily. Goodness means being loving to our own-selves plus all others.

When we thus become comfortable with us at a deep level, we can feel real good, we can truly be good. Goodness then emerges from our very being, others notice it.

Are you good?

A life of adventure

If you want guarantees in life, then you don’t want life. You want rehearsals for a script that’s already been written. – Neale Donald Walsch

We live fearful lives. We’re fearful of our health, material well being and of our very existence. For that reason we seek safety and guarantees, a quest on which we spend our entire lives. It’s a goal that can never be reached.

Safety and peace can only be found in accepting our lot. Accepting that certain things are just they way they are. Accepting that at the core we’re spiritual beings, beings that will never die. Accepting that nothing happens by accident, all that happens leads to a goal undecipherable, knowing that we’re all ultimately safe in this grand drama that plays all around us.

What are you afraid of?

How and where do you find your peace?

Your inner voice

Everyone has an inner voice; you just have to listen to it and trust it in order to be led by it. I did that, and it gave me the ability to live a life that’s true to who I am. – Sissy Spacek

Have you paid attention to the still voice inside you? It’s always there, beckoning us towards love, attention, service, caring, dynamic action and the sure way ahead.

It takes the shape of hunches you receive, when you feel right on the inside, and you just know; or when a sudden thought pops into your head. Pay closer attention the next time, the more conscious your get the more it seems to be there.

Don’t miss out on this ever present and great resource. It’s where all the wisdom and love flows from too.

If someone irritates you!

If some one irritates you, causes feelings of resentment, you should sympathetically seek to discern his viewpoint, his reasons for such objectionable conduct. If once you understand your neighbor, you will become tolerant, and this tolerance will grow into friendship and ripen into love. – The Urantia Papers

Understanding and love among all is the only way the planet will eventually find peace.

How will such a thing happen? Not by God doing it for us or by some other magical means. It must be achieved little by little and one person at a time. It will only happen when you and I change. When such a change becomes apparent to our family and neighbors, they will wonder what it was that changed us!

Then the virus of love and understanding will spread to them and eventually to all we touch, which is the entire planet! This is the prescription for love, peace and happiness that we all seek!

Find the seed!

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. – Oliver Wendell Holmes

You are like a seed. A seed comes with all that it needs to grow into a mighty oak. It dances with Nature to extract water/sunshine and provides life-giving fruit and shade.

Find the seed that you are, deep inside you. Once you make contact you’ll have the means to be rejuvenated and motivated like never before!

You will grow like a strong oak and know yourself. You will then give to those around you, in ways no one else can.

Find your seed and discover yourself!

Your destiny!

Destiny is not a matter of chance;

it is a matter of choice.

It is not a thing to be waited for;

it is a thing to be achieved. – William Jennings Bryan

It’s your life and it’s your destiny that you control; by your thoughts, determinations, agreements, affirmations, assumptions, desires, habits and goals!

Let’s talk about agreements today, what are they? They are larger assumptions that you live by. An example might be: ‘My parents divorced when I was a kid, no one really loves me, not even God’. Another one could be: ‘I’ve failed in many of my major endeavors in life, I can’t make a success out of anything’.

Such basic but major assumptions define, to a very large extent, what you will experience in life. We do learn a lot from adversity so are we trying to create a perfect life? God does want us to be happy but s/he also wants us to grow as humans into reliable and mature beings. So in my opinion the focus on the ‘Law of Attraction’ to create an ideal life is a little misplaced. A truly fulfilling life can only be obtained when our life is in lock-step with the Universal Mind, God’s Will. Living with God as our partner is to actually fulfill our destiny.

Ponder that.

Love and Forgive…

The Father in heaven loves his children, and therefore should you learn to love one another; the Father in heaven forgives you your sins; therefore should you learn to forgive one another. – Jesus, The Urantia Book

 

That’s all there is to it!

Love because we all deserve it, and who to give it, except us to others? When we love, we can’t help but feel that emotion ourselves, we thus end up loving our own selves, makes for a better personality and better health!

Forgive because that truly opens us to receive inspiration from God. Otherwise we’re lost in our thoughts about how we were wronged! Ends up causing poorer health!

So the recipe for happiness and good health is Love and Forgive!
