The Key to Happiness
If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for the Creator, there is no poverty.
Rainer Maria Rilke
But, Before All Else – Here’s the Key to Reading This Blog
This is really simple, like you can’t push
your body beyond its limit and participate in a triathlon if you never took a
walk around the park in the last year – much of the same applies to your mind,
and especially your mind in relation to your soul work. Without deeper knowing
and appreciation for you really are, this will be a difficult work, but if you
are dedicated to living a fulfilled life – you will find a way to go further
and deeper into your soul and accept
the guidance that is unmistakably there for you.
Only read as far as it feels comfortable to
you in this moment. Don’t push yourself, you won’t be able to – but come armed
with patience and love for yourself always.
I will stop saying Real Happiness, Real
Love, Real Fulfilment, Real Joy – because there is no other kind that truly
exists, but pure, honest, real and true.
And Now – The Key to Happiness
While there are many manifestations of
happiness, just as many as us, right here on the frontier of all creation -
there is only one source of it at the core level, and it is the same for all of
us.
That happiness, or satisfaction, or
fulfilment is something your soul will always seek to reconnect with, as this
is your nature. You simply cannot not be
who you really are. My dear friend, we absolutely knew this when we came
into this physical reality we live in, but conditioning caused us to forget and
feel dissatisfied in all sorts of ways. However, happiness is natural to us –
and, unless we do something to stop it – it would be there, naturally!
So, you go about your daily life. Let’s
imagine you are relatively content, you are comfortable where you are, you
don’t push yourself too much, you complain about the politics, you entertain
yourself with mindless crap that never inspires you to explore your own
creativity – only invites more endless conversations about it, fuelled by the
bombardment of media, much in the same direction. You may have people you love
and care about and who love you back. And you call this ‘happiness’? If you are blessed with good health, I can
see how it would even seem as an ideal existence to many and why they settle
for it. For a while…. But that's just an imitation of happiness, that's not even a fragment of its true depth, that is actually a cheap shot at life.
Because, and here’s the thing – reaching
this sort of comfort level in which you don’t explore the unknown and, in tune
with your inner being, reach deeper inside yourself to get reconnected with
your very nature – you will grow bored, resentful and eventually unhappy.
Profound
happiness is not measured by how much you earn,
where you work or live, what is your status in society, and not even by how much you are loved.
Profound happiness is measured only by how much you give, by your own output. And I mean giving your
all, giving all you got, giving to the point of keeping nothing for yourself.
(Don’t worry, that well cannot ever run dry!) Because, my friend, that is who
you are: You are Love at the core of your being. Unless and until you are
giving all each and every moment of this wonderful existence – you are not
being true who you really are, and you will feel that something is off.
Because, when you are not being love – you are not being who you really are. Simply put: you are not being you.
When you look at all others the way the
source inside you sees them – then you know love. When you look at yourself the
way the source inside us all sees you – then you know love! And unless you
create life from that place of unconditional, purest love there is – then, what
are you creating?
Everything else we can build on, as high
and as elaborate as we wish, in whichever direction our heart takes us – and we
can make real impact in the world, by brining our best self forward. We can be
diverse in our interests and our creative energy and the inspiration we bring
and give. Always, unquestionably and unconditionally being our best. But let us
decide today, each for ourselves, that the reason behind our every thought and
action is love.
Because nothing ever demands that you bring your best
self like love, my friend. Not tolerance (it
just gives you all sorts of excuses to bring some qualities of you forward, and to
reserve, or hold back, some of you – thus, not needing to give your all), not diplomacy
(let’s not even go further in this direction)….
Nothing
will make you truly happy as being the pure love. Yes,
you have it in you, same as everyone else. Same as me – you have it inside you.
Just go deeper in your soul, embrace it and let your soul embrace you - and, then let it out, my friend! That’s all you
need to be profoundly happy, knowing that in every moment you are being the
best you that you know how to be, that you are giving all you have in you, without holding anything back, and
that you love everyone with the same love, with all of the love you find inside
you. Trust me, that source is indistinguishable. And the more you give, the
more you will have and find there to give tomorrow, next time, again and again,
forever.
