People who postpone happiness are like children who try chasing rainbows in an effort to find the pot of gold at the rainbows end...Your life will never be fulfilled until you are happy here and now.
Ken Keyes Jr.Lots of people look for happiness through sensations, whether it's through sex, the taste of food, the sound of music, the sensations of movies and plays, creating a certain environment in their home, and so on. Looking for happiness through sensations keeps you constantly searching for the next "fix" and for more varied sensations. Sensations become addictions, and nothing is ever enough.
Ken Keyes Jr.Even when we get what we addictively want, our wanting to keep things that way automatically creates a new addiction.
Ken Keyes Jr.You are not responsible for the programming you picked up in childhood. However, as an adult, you are one hundred percent responsible for fixing it.
