What you believe is coming to you or that you think you are going to is ego luring you into a hole that the past has already dug. Anywhere but here is where ego wants you to be, and sadly, most are “anywhere but here.”

As wise ones have said, the ground you stand on now is “holy ground.” Solid, firm, and real. Will you undermine it with yesterday’s unfulfilled expectations or tomorrow’s dreams of what isn’t? Stand where you are and be present. Nothing is more evident than “now,” and you can always deal with that!

Joy thrives regardless of circumstances. That is your circumstances or anyone else’s that you think is better or worse than yours. Having or getting adds confusion and anxiety to a mind beset with more of what it doesn’t have, and joy, happiness, and contentment are the cost. Realizing “what YOU are” is inexplicable joy carried evermore into where you are regardless of the circumstances. In other words, YOU’ve got it all. Why not enjoy it?

There is only one way, and to the chagrin of many, it is not your way, any way, someone’s or everyone’s way! Happily, you’ll know the way when you’re on the way and YOU are always “on the way.” Don’t overthink it!

Happiness is not a derivative of your ability to judge the differences between this or that. It exists regardless of your distinctions but is most apparent when you don’t make any distinctions. Do you see?

It is not possible to dive naked into a pool of water and not get wet. Likewise, happiness is a pool that only asks that you plunge into its depths without judging how wet you will get or what that wetness consists of. Life is swimming; even if you don’t know how to swim, always take the plunge. See you at the pool!

The playground of happiness is always open, never guarded, and admission-free. The only thing that keeps us from entering is our Mind’s crazy idea of happiness. The thought of happiness is the demise of it. So, stop thinking about it, and let’s play.

Happiness is not what we do, places we go, things we learn, beliefs, acclaim, friendships, etc. The truly happy are those who have paid no price for it. Happiness is our essence, not some formula devised to achieve it, and it hides in the most elusive place known to humans. That is in our thoughts of where we think it should be. Stop the thoughts; happiness is YOU right now!

Happiness requires no self to be. That is, no self that feeds on things it believes cause happiness. Love and joy are the same. All these things defy cause and effect. There is no cause for love, joy, or happiness. They just are.

YOU, now, are the consummate miracle! The wonder of YOU is not predicated on what you hope will come. Happy already resides in you, and no outside circumstances in the days, months, or years to come will ever change that.

Our earthly experience is entirely unbiased and neutral in every way. We add the bias, the judgments, and thoughts about what is happening and why. That is our confusion. Our minds muddle experiences, creating suffering and short-lived happiness in an endless parade of wants and desires. Any wonder why we need to be “out of our minds?”
