Happiness Is Key

When you rest in this moment right now what do you feel? You feel peace, harmony and love. Being in the present moment allows you to fully accept everything that is happening right now. You don't have to like what is happening right now, if you need to change what is happening then by all means do so, but if this isn't possible then allow yourself to accept the moment, however painful it may be.

When you rest in the present moment, a nice warm feeling of happiness will regularly arise, do not shun this feeling, this is the feeling which allows us to feel at ease, and brings out the happiness that deep down we truly are. Are good decisions made through negativity? Absolutely not. A positive mindset is what helps us go about our day better, with an easier more open minded view of the world we allow ourselves to accept others for what they are, you don't have to particularly love another to accept them.

Happiness is Key. Happiness is what makes the world go round, and without the acts of kindess and love which happiness arises through, we would be a lost race. 

Smile, and most of all.... Be Happy!

Love And Compassion

There is something which seems to be somewhat lacking in our present world today, and that is love and compassion for anyone and everyone. We have begin to believe that we should only love certain people over others, as some may not be "worthy" of our love. This is extremely egotistical and incredibly narrow minded, every person in the world deserves our love, they are our own creature after all.

In certain times which may be tougher than others, people struggle to give the compassion that others deserve, not being able to rest in this current moment is what creates the divide we believe to exist between each one of us. This divide is completely false. We are all one. When you allow yourself to accept whatever is happening right now no matter how good or bad, you will begin to see that love and compassion is always available, not to mention the love and compassion we should show ourselves every day, we will never truly know how to love another until we have loved ourselves.

Love is what keeps the world turning, people love and people show compassion, it has been easily proven that darkness cannot survive in the bright light of love, the bright light of kindness, care and love will always out-strengthen hate, and that is exactly why love and compassion is what we need to show to our fellow humans, before it is too late! 

Love Everyone.

Be The World Through Yourself

Once it becomes known to you properly that the conceptual identity that we create for ourselves doesn't exist, life becomes easier in the sense that there no longer needs to be an identity that you have to protect, because this identity doesn't exist. When you realise this truly life changing obvious fact, the first thing many want to do is to "enlighten the masses" this is all good and well that you want to tell others what you know and believe that it needs to be heard, however be thoughtful over who you tell, as the ignorance of some may begin to derail you if you let the negativity rise. 

As people, we are all different. "People" doesn't exactly have substance it is just a way of describing what we are, however we are born with the ability to debate, explain and argue, so we are all really meant to be different, therefore one person may show an interest and enthusiasm to what you may be saying, however another may laugh in your face and describe it as rubbish. Don't become to disheartened if you meet someone like this, as we will all have different reactions to different people.

The moment which you stop allowing the opinions of others to cloud your being, your judgment and life, is the moment where your life may become to be sidetracked. Live the world through your eyes of the present moment, not behind the screen of the past or future, this screen is nothing but a replay of moments which have either passed or don't even exist yet. Just allow yourself to be in this moment right now, completely untouched by the imaginary stress which you yourself creates. 

People will live their own lives and that is completely neccesary for us to go forward, if you start to believe that you can control others lives this is where you will become mistken. You cannot control something which isn't in you, you are the own orchestrator of your own life. Living a life free of judgement will allow the true love that you are to shine through, and I promise this will make you a happier person in the long run.

Be Yourself!

Don't Look Elsewhere

If you are struggling to find peace in your day to day life, just accept the present moment. Whether you may like it or not, sometimes it is better to accept what is than to fight what you cannot change. If you look outside yourself for peace of mind you will not truly find what you are looking for. Why? You cannot change the world before you have changed yourself.

Some of us will have "plans" to change the world with our own talents, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this as it is a great quality to be able to strongly believe in your dreams, however it is vital that you make sure you are a peace with yourself and show the love and compassion to yourself that you deserve, therefore whatever the outcome of your dreams and hopes, you will still be happy with what you have. It is important to realise that we do not need anything else other than what we have in our lives right now, it is okay to want extra things in your life, but don't let this ruin the present moment right now.

We have been serious misguided by the ones who call themselves the "leaders", this could be your government, celebrities or politicians to name a few. Even though there is definitely a lot of goodness in the world, there is also quite a lot of evil. Somewhere along the path of life some seem to have lost their morals towards the true life - the true way of loving your neighbour. We have been told to fend for ourselves which has led to an increased belief in separation between the masses. There will never truly be a separation, we are all one, one together, only our minds and thoughts will tell us differently.

Whatever you are doing right now? Keep doing it. If it makes you happy it will only ever be good for you. 

Accept Everything. Accept What Is.

Nothing Changes... Or Does It?

In this "transitional" you may believe that your life is beginning to change massively. However it is not the life which is being lived which is changing, it is merely your viewpoint of it. So many times we see changes in our life as huge, we give these changes substance, believing that this is life changing. The big joke of it is all is that NOTHING has changed. Merely your viewpoint has changed!

From the moment we can remember our own existence we have gone through various different stages of growing up, puberty etc, this is all the circle of life however the aspect that is actually running the show called life has never changed. It has remained completely the same, only aspects inside the spectrum of your life have changed. Once you realise that you have been "there" all along it becomes another truly liberating moment for you, and with eye-openers such as this beginning to rear their head, the veil of separation slowly begins to dissolve.

So many of us see ourselves as nothing but a wave in the vast ocean, but this is false. We ARE the ocean. When you allow yourself to rest in this moment this will all become realised, you will realise that for your lives you have lived from the mind and believed in our mind made character, this entity is false.

WE ARE LIFE.

Relax.

There is no need to panic, or be stressed in this moment. Only you can cause this to happen to yourself, we are naturally quite docile beings who are more inclined to offer love and peace, which is part of our true nature. Relax. Relaxing in this moment won't affect your level of effort and motivation towards a task at hand, if anything it will help you do a better job of it. When nothing is disturbing your presence, life is naturally easier, why wouldn't it be? You have everything you would ever need right here, right now.

"If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present moment" Lao Tzu.

Let this quote sink in for a couple of minutes. Don't continue reading until you have completely digested the meaning of this quote. Any problems that may occur will occur in the present moment, but will then cease to exist, therefore making them the past. Why would continue thinking about something which isn't in the present moment? You cannot change what has already happened. Let yourself allow everything to flood into you, and then flood back out. You are an eternal being, and there is nothing outside of you which could ever truly disturb the beauty that you are.

Relax.
