Giving up an addiction means re-programming that part of your brain that makes you restless and unhappy if a desire is not realized.

Happiness happens when your consciousness is not dominated by addictions and demands - and you experience life as a parade of preferences.

All the study and effort toward higher consciousness can be eliminated if we do but one thing; Love it All.

Allow yourself emotion-backed demands only for physical necessities such as air to breathe, food if starving, and shelter if freezing.

View others as unfolding beings in their journey toward higher consciousness.

I am perceiving everyone, including myself, as an awakening being who is here to claim his or her birthright to the higher consciousness planes of unconditional love and oneness.

I welcome the opportunity (even if painful) that my minute to minute experience offers me to become aware of the addictions I must reprogram to be liberated from my robot-like emotional patterns.
