Happiness is your choice. You can choose today.

I recommend free writing in the morning and the evening as a type of mental shower.

I would suggest that the next generation stop looking for happiness outside of themselves but instead turn inward.

If you're stuck in traffic, call a friend or listen to a favorite podcast. If you're waiting in a long line, make friends with a person in line with you. There are lots of ways we can change the vibe.

By growing a spiritual practice, we are given all that we need.

We won't let ourselves feel our anger, rage, and pain. We push it down or anesthetize it through drugs, alcohol, shopping, or whatever we do in order not to feel it. When that memory and the associated feelings get lodged down there in our soul, the feelings are still there. They don't just magically go away. We have to give ourselves the opportunity to feel them.

You must develop a rich inner life to enjoy life altogether.
