Choosing to Be, Happy!

Every day, I am awestruck by how happy I am. Some nights, as I'm falling asleep, I realize that my lips are curved up ever so slightly, which makes me break out into a full blown smile and I giggle. Life is so good. 

I struggled for so many years to have this, so many years, searching for it—you cannot and will not, ever, find true happiness outside of yourself. If only I had more money, if only I had the right partner, if only I had more support, if only I had a nicer car, a bigger house, a better job, if only I were thinner, if only I lived closer to the mountains, the beach, the city, the country, if only...none of that, none. of. it. will make you happy, and what if-ing and if only-ing is wasted energy projected into a future that does not exist.

Life is happening right now. You can choose to be grateful and happy in this moment, or you can choose to blame all the things you don't have, and all of your perceived shitty circumstances for being unhappy. The only thing we have control over in any given situation, in any given moment in "time" is our attitude about it. You must choose to be happy, or not. I'm sorry not sorry for telling you the truth.

The moment I decided to live in the present moment and be grateful—grateful for everything, even so called "bad" things, is when my life shifted. This was my awakening. The more I practiced this simple way of being, the better my life got. Any time I felt like I was sliding back into programmed habits, I immediately brought myself back to this moment and found something for which to be grateful, and I still do that—less frequently now though, because my life is fucking amazing.

Happiness, as it turns out, is Me. I am Happiness. I am the embodiment of Source Energy, Unconditional Love, Divine Light and Bliss. Gratitude and Present Moment Awareness are the keeper of the keys to Happiness. 

There is a global shift in consciousness happening and it's picking up speed. All the lies of the old paradigm are falling away and people are waking up. I'm so incredibly grateful to be here, to experience these profound moments—and I’m happy, ever happy.

Be well.
