Happiness-Freedom

image

The poster says:  The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart. —- Thich Nhat Hanh

**************************************************************

What does happiness feel like?  What does it mean?  Who has the most happiness?

The answer may be, “It depends on how much freedom you have!”

Over the years, I have posted quite a few blogs about happiness.  Here is a short list of some of the posts.

I Will Benefit Others

image

The poster says:

Every day, thank as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have precious human life, I am not going to waste it.  I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings.  I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others.  I am going to benefit others as much as I can.  —- Dalai Lama

What a beautiful mission statement to live by!  Would it not be wonderful if more people and more corporations could live in this manner?

Blessings,

Find Your Teacher

The poster says:  The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don’t tell you what to see.  — Alexandra K. Trenfor

***********************************

Sometimes, the Universe plays tricks on us… or at least we perceive them as tricks.  We may decide that we will not take any more courses, and then a teacher comes along that we know we must work with.   Or, we may decide not to teach or mentor any longer, and a student shows up that we know we must work with, and coach.

I watch the process happen over and over.  It is a beautiful thing! It means that the Universe has a plan for putting the right student and teacher together.  It means that there is an advantage in moving forward as a team (student and teacher).  Synergies are created that let the student move beyond what they would have done by themselves.  And, the teacher has one more chance to leave a legacy.
