The Art of Happiness
During a recent birthday celebration, my 6 ¾ year old grandson decided to add some extra fun by painting himself a clown face... He then proceeded to tell silly jokes and teach me the “right” way to laugh... the lesson went on until his 4 year old cousin arrived and together they did a very convincing demonstration... I am still chuckling to myself as I think of it...
Have you ever noticed how much children of all ages love to laugh? I make it a daily habit to find something to laugh about – whether it is something that I am experiencing or witnessing around me, it fills my heart with happiness...
My organs relax and I feel a deep sense of wellbeing... I find laughing at myself to be the most enjoyable part of my day... During times of stress I can choose to be in the “heavy” energy... or... I can step back from the situation and find something to be grateful for and welcome the Power of Joy...
My happiness is defined in so many different ways... laughter is certainly one of the elements... gratitude of the moment is another... connecting to my breath and my physical body are others... How do you define happiness?
One of the greatest gifts I have received in the Art of Happiness is being in the moment and accepting the divine expressions of Love present... As John Lennon said: All you need is Love...
I am wearing my “happy face” and “Loving Life”...
Today I...
Find reasons to fill my body with laughter...
Appreciate the delights of spring...
Celebrate each moment in Love and Joy...
And so it is...
