Happy is a frame of mind…Joy a state of being.

Do More…Try Less
When I “try” I am saying “a part of this doesn’t resonate with me.”
When I am “trying” I enter a space of potential failure, guilt, or shame.
Trying creates a river of resistance.
Instead, I think I will simply choose to “do” – do what feels right, do what I can do, do what resonates as what I am supposed to do.
Do without resistance.
Hard Work
Compassion, peace, and calm cannot be forced. One cannot demand that someone be compassionate. One cannot command peace and calm. Rather, one must model it, live it, and know that the path to peace in ourselves and others is a steady process of balancing ego and replacing envy and judgment with love and inspiration. And that is the hard work that we must individually choose to do.
Dance in the Darkness
No matter that anger laps at your feet,
No matter that fear and distrust appear to form walls around you,
No matter that hope feels smothered,
Spiral upwards, out of the ashes of perceived despair,
Fill the air with compassion.
As long as the flames of compassion dance,
We can know only peace and joy.
Happiness
- Happiness blooms
Why pursue happiness when you can just have it?
The Greater Gift
To know unconditionally is one thing.
To love unconditionally is another.
Everyday Zen
Spiraling upwards.
Energy lifting.
Feeling so blissful.
Finding my joy.
Sensing my balance.
Knowing my strength.
Freeing myself to be me.
Adventurous
I never thought of myself as adventurous…but then again when joy and goodness are in the driver’s seat, anything can happen…if you just let it. Put the peddle to the metal.
Sparkle
Carefully pack and load the fuel of your inner self. Confidently launch it wide and free.
Let the essence of you sparkle like fireworks. Hear the oooos and ahhhhs.
The Edge
Sometime you have to leap from the edge of the familiar to allow your true self to shine.
