The art of happiness is to serve…not just those you choose to serve…not just at times that are convenient to serve…not just from the excess reserves…but to serve…all.

Be Meek
Meek is not to be cowardly, rather it is gentle, patient, non-violent, and creates a soft space from which your power emerges in its most natural form – one of compassion, vision, abundance, and joy. Be meek.
Power
True power comes not from the words you say, but in how well you listen. The value is in the listening.
Wisdomful
We say we want our children to be more mindful, but aren’t they already in their minds enough? Why don’t we encourage them instead to be more wisdomful?

Natural Light
See the light…
Feel the light…
Be the light…
The natural, blissful, abundant, light that is YOU!
There is no need to do or be anything else.
A safe space
Find your safe space, your inner refuge. Close your eyes for a moment and notice what it look like, what is all around you. Feel the comfort, peace, and ease this space brings you. Know that your safe space is always there for you.
Now, share the peace, and ease of this space with those around you. Through your thoughts, your words, your actions, today create a safe space around you inviting others to experience comfort, peace, and ease in your presence.
Play Day
a painting by Susan Kerr
Instead of calling it work and begrudging it, what if today you call it play. Approach the to-do list with curiosity and wonder as if something new and exciting were about to unfold. Carry a smile in your pocket and wish genuine happiness to all those around you. Treat your space of work as a playground. Let your mind play tag with creativity. Flow through tasks and conversations as if gliding across the monkey bars. Delight in small accomplishments with the same flutter in your belly as when you first learned to swing. Invite play into your day. Feel big, free, and happy.

Contrast
Look for the contrast…the inordinary combination of experiences that color your life, that offer surprise, that stand out and remind you that anything is possible, and so much more striking with distinction. Seek and find joy in the contrast that makes life pop.
Strength
Strength is not born of rigidity or impenetrable barriers.
Strength is open, flowing, embracing…a constant balance of contracting inwards and expanding outwards.
Strength is resilience, peace, ease.
Strength is the unstoppable force of love.
Peace
PEACE
Find it…
Give it…
Feel it…
Be it.
