HAPPINESS

We had a perfect weekend. We had a family party on Saturday and had a chance to visit with folks we haven't seen in a few years. Yesterday, we finished a fence building project that has been weighing on us. It was a satisfying day.

Most of us ask ourselves, "How can we best contribute to the world?" "What do we have to offer?" We want to do our share in creation of a loving world.

Let us examine this question. We chose to be born at this time to help usher in the new age. We came with gifts/talents to contribute. We are beginning to awaken, and as we see clearly, we will see how we can best contribute. Of course, we have been contributing all along, by our commitment to loving ourselves, and each other. Every time we smile, every time we laugh, we contribute, we add light to the world.

Sure, some have gifts of leadership etc., but those folks will will recognize their role when they are called. We don't need to know, in advance, what we will be called to do. We will be ready, by being close to ourselves. That is, by being in the now, and following our passion. 

It all pretty much boils down to being happy. I mean genuinely happy. Not putting a good face on, not gritting your teeth through a smile. Really happy, from inside out. When we look around us and see who is most beneficial to the rest, it appears to be the peaceful ones, the folks that radiate calm. Yes, they are calm, they are peaceful; they are happy!

In our zeal to grow and evolve into the loving beings, we know we are, we sometimes add stress where it need not be. We do not grow by judging ourselves. We do not grow by attention to our limitations. Happiness comes with accepting ourselves, just the way we are. What happened in the past, happened in the past. If we need to forgive ourselves, let's do it. If we need to forgive others, let's do it. What has happened in this illusion, ultimately, has no consequence.

The most important thing we can do, to contribute to the world, is to be HAPPY. Then we uplift everyone. Happiness, joy, peace and love; they are one. We are one.

When we go through the day and realize we do not feel happy. We can stop. Contemplate for a moment. What thought and feeling has entered our consciousness? It doesn't belong. Don't own it. Dismiss it. Is it regret of a past event? Forgive. Is it worry about the future? It hasn't happened. We are meant to be happy! We are entitled to be happy! We are part of Source, which is all love, joy, peace, and therefore, happiness.

Pay attention to your happiness. The gifts, you have to share with the world, will be shared. We are love,

Love and Peace,  Gregg
