We Are All One...

"We all live within the same illusion and are, in our own way and in our own time, trying to understand the truth behind it all. Some may not be looking at the moment or even in this particular life, but ultimately we will all wake up from the dream and remember who we really are. Ultimately, we will all become one..."

Deciphering The Mystery Of Happiness

Pondered by
Find a reason to be happy everyday and your life will never go to waste. Too often, it seems, we can become overwhelmed by the specifics of daily life and lose sight of this precious gift that we've all been given. Life is a wondrous journey where even the most seemingly mundane moments can have an air of magic about them. That is, once our eyes have learned to see magical things.

Deciphering the mystery of our own happiness is like peeling back the skin of a luscious fruit. At first glance life often appears to be nothing more than a rough and bitter skin, but once we have learned to uncover the sweet nectar within, we can begin to savor all of life's decadent flavors and the seeds of happiness will begin to appear to us wherever it is that we look.

Happiness is something different for everyone and for this reason it can often elude us, but once we allow ourselves to see how exciting it is to discover those inner parts of us, then the process of living becomes a fantastic adventure.

    I was really moved by your recent post because it's something I think about often. Happiness is there if you want it to be. You just have to see that it's wrapped up in beauty and hidden delicately in between the seconds of your life. Everyone's journey and perspective on life is different. More often than not, many people never stop for a moment to notice. It's like if you knew you had a terminal illness, you wouldn't waste a minute of it. Well really, we all have a terminal illness, it's called life. Thank you for sharing another beautiful post and for reminding me that we can all see life in a different light when we choose to view happiness with open eyes. I really like that!! :)

      Thanks Mel! I've been a little distracted lately I guess, so I haven't been able to post much, but I will try to post more soon if I can. :D

      Awesome! I've been subscribed to dailygood for some months now and get their emails each day, but somehow I missed this one. Thank you! I can see why you made it your homepage. I know I could definitely use more joy in my life. I guess our perceptions of reality can become so skewed at times that we can sometimes rob ourselves of the simple truths of all we have to be grateful for in life. Thank you for the link. :)
