Sunday Shines On!

grass

Pick up the pieces

walk this way

calm remains

on a summer’s day.

Grasses bend by the wind’s heavy hand

thoughts are a’blowing from my outstretched hand.

Bees are buzzing

words keep coming

I shall not stop the flow.

Birds are chirping

brook is gurgling

and now I feel now feel at home.

Shine On!

Seeking Happiness?

11

“The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance;
the wise grows it under his feet.” – James Oppenheim

Are you running around wishing for happiness?  Are you thinking that if you just had more money, better health, a spouse, better grades, a bigger house, a better job or (you fill in the blank) you would be happy?  Well fear not gentle humans, the happiness you seek is right here under your feet!  Yes, you have it within you now.  There’s no need to seek for it outside of yourself.  It is within YOU that your happiness resides.  It is YOU who holds the key.  You are the gardener of your own special brand of happiness and fulfillment.  It is here and now in the Presents of Presence!

Take a moment today to be grateful for the happiness that you hold and know that you are standing with it now.  All the potential for all that you feel you lack is right here waiting for you to awaken from your slumber and to rejoice in the knowledge that your happiness is within you.

Count your blessings and they multiply.  Give of yourself and you expand happiness.  Hold sacred your gratitude for what is and what was and what will be.  Treat yourself and others with kindness and love.  Share.  Connect.  Allow anger to dissipate and move forward in your day with forgiveness.  Be strong, be gentle, be you.

And happiness will flow into your life easily without barriers

for YOU have lifted the dam of doubt which prevented the flow in your life.

Shine On!
