To see your drama clearly is to be liberated from it.

The love and peace of higher consciousness flow from just being - and enjoying it all. Anything you do will not be enough unless you feel fulfilled in just being. Usually we are not happy when we find doing whatever it is that we think we have to do. Doing creates expectations that your world and the people around you may or may not fit. The things we do disappear in time. We must learn to appreciate just being alive in the nowness of whatever situation we are in.

If you want those around you to act in a more loving and conscious manner, act in a way that helps them to do so.

Whenever you're unhappy, your emotions are telling you that the people or things around you are not conforming to your vision of the world, or the way you think things should be.

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

Think of the world as a loving place that is designed to give you everything that you need.

Once again, when you upgrade sensations from an addiction to a preference, you can enjoy things such as gourmet food and music, without having your happiness depend on them.
