We all go around searching for things. I want this, I want that. If I have this I will be happy, If I’m able to get that I will finally be happy. When I have a big house, life will then feel good. If only I was beautiful I would be with my soulmate by now. The irony is that all these things are not capable of bringing us happiness. If you cant be happy without them, then you never will be even when they are present. The truth is that it is not these things we are actually searching for, it is the feeling associated with these things.
It’s not the Ferrari or the 40 million dollars mansion in the Hampton’s but the feeling we get when riding the Ferrari. The soft feel of the wheels rubbing against your hands, the comfort and gentleness of the leather cushion against your backside. The joy that leaps into our hearts, that feeling of utter satisfaction and being on top of the world. But what we don’t realize is that having a car does not necessarily mean we get that feeling we desire. Even more than ever it is now realized that when you want something so much and you then chase and work so hard to get it, when you finally do get it you feel exhausted, worn out and start to question if at all it was all worth it and this definitely does not create any feeling of satisfaction.
The secret now is that to be happy, you need to accept yourself just as you are right now. You need to accept the way you are right now if you ever want to be happy. You need to learn to relax and let go. Stop fighting life and yourelf. Make peace with what is. The fact that you have a liposuction does not necessarily mean you automatically feel younger. You could look younger on the outside but not neccessarily so on the inside too. It is essential to understand that everything we are fighting or searching for is all on the inside. Fighting symptoms instead of looking for an inner cure will do no one any good. Accept today, accept yourself, accept life and you will find inner peace and lasting joy.
YOU + ACCEPTANCE = HAPPINESS
"If I could define enlightenment briefly I would say it is 'the quiet acceptance of what is'." --Wayne Dyer.
