Happiness Smappiness

Here is an excerpt from ‘Notes from the universe” from yesterday…
“For those who ponder and wonder and wrestle with the idea of what it is that they really want, I have an answer that each would wholeheartedly agree with:”Happiness.”
In the personal search for happiness, sometimes so much can be lost…and what I mean by that is we spend so much time trying to figure things out most of the time, that we forget to be present and to remember that we have a choice to be happy. I know some of you will disagree with me but we all really do…
The other day, I was grappling with something that was weighing on my mind…..essentially a whole batch of confusing emotions that were swirling…we all know the feeling. I was tired and feeling a little self loathing when I realized that I had nothing to not be happy about. By setting the “stuff” aside for a moment and shifting my perspective to the amazing things that are going really well in my life, I immediately WAS Happy!
Happy, in my opinion is really a state of mind. None of us can change the past, but we can be present and create our own happy future just as we had always hoped for. We need not more than what is right in front of us….and nothing is more powerful and beautiful than that! Let go of expectations and embrace what the universe has to give you…..its as easy as that!
