Happiness and Patience

PATIENCE AND HAPPINESS
If you are walking down the path, and you are always intent on getting to that place twenty feet ahead of you, you really aren't going to have your awareness happily sensing each foot as it touches the ground.

Same in life, if we are washing the dishes and thinking about "getting it over with," we are forfeiting any pleasure you could be having in the moment.

If we are not listening to what someone is saying to us, because we can't wait to get our two bits in, we can't enjoy them, or the music of their voice, or the joy of our own eyes or breathing or standing up in gravity on this amazing planet Earth.

If I am typing away like crazy, wanting to get this little piece done, and forgetting to breathe and to notice sitting upright in gravity on this amazing planet Earth, then I am missing the joy of now.

The joy of now is happiness.

If we are impatient, we lose that. Too high a price, I say. What about you?



PLEASE BE WELL:


Pleasure
Ease
Awareness
Sensitive Strength
Enlightenment

BE

Waking up to now.
Embracing Change.
Learning to learn.
Loving to move, improve and transform.
