On a personal note <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Like many, my entire life I was fascinated with the idea of pursuing happiness, exploring it throughout my life in many different ways. Along the way, in order for me to elevate to a state of joy, I had to become aware of, and let go of many thought patterns, which didn’t serve me, on the contrary, led to toxic habits and prevented me from being happy, prevented me from being in a state of joy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We all have reasons to be upset and sad. It seems to be easier for us to be in that state of vibration, a default, as fear, hate and competition are a part of our culture, being reflected in movies, and an essential part of the daily news. (which I don’t watch) How come we agree to live unhappy life? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fear and Hate versus Love & Joy <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
I’m sure we can all agree that Love & Joy are higher state of being than Fear & Hate. Joy takes time, effort and a daily commitment to attain and maintain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I wanted to share with you pearls of wisdom, which came my way, from wise people, books I’ve read, Torah, Talmud, Psalms and sacred text, which help me, as I find them comforting and elevating, for practical daily use, an essential part of maintaining my state of joy. Some days are more challenging than others, I’m the first to admit I’m not always joyous, but there many pearls of wisdom waiting for us all to be picked, as God’s precious gift to us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is not rocket science to embrace the fact that being happy is our natural state of being. Need evidence? look at children, before they reach the age of self-awareness they have no worry and they are happy, like we used to be as little children…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJudge nothing, you will be happy. Forgive everything, you will be happier. Love everything, you will be happiest.\u201d- Sri Chinmoy <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is happiness?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Many people spend a large amount of their time striving for, and praying for a lot of money, a fulfilling romantic relationship, a successful career, a beautiful house, a luxurious car, thinking these are the keys to happiness and peace of mind, only to find that once you get them, you keep wanting the next best thing. There is always a next best thing or a desire waiting to be fulfilled, with the hope that it will make you feel \u201chappy\u201d, an illusion dangling like a carrot just out of your reach. We seem to always want more, the more the merrier when it comes to the outside world. We all know people who seem to \u201chave it all,\u201d but don\u2019t seem to be happy at all. How come?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
