What is the Pursuit of Happiness?

1.jpg

Are you willing to explore a very empowering truth about happiness? This truth is right under your nose, and even so, it is usually totally overlooked.

How can I be happier? How often have you asked yourself this question?

The truth is that pursuing happiness doesn’t mean running after some distant goal that you hope to acquire some day. It doesn’t mean that pursuing external things is the cure. Buying a new car or moving into a different house can be nice. However, do external possessions get rid of dissatisfactions and problems, the ones that keep on hounding you?

Do you sense how hard it can be at times to keep your life on a happy track?

I have solutions.

I’ve delved deeply into learning about the power of happiness. I struggled with uncovering the effects of happiness and its many ways of expressing. My efforts have borne amazing fruit, and they keep doing so!

In How to Be Happy, I’ll show you great ways for you to create your own brand of happiness. When you unleash your positive inner abilities more fully, your happiness and your creativity will keep on expanding in marvelous ways.

In my early twenties, I was working at an engrossing job in my home town. I had a new husband with whom I was very much in love. He’d just finished his Ph.D. and was offered a high-paying job at a local university. We had bought a beautiful old two-story house with tall oak trees that filled the property. We were thrilled living there. I was happy!

Then the clouds rolled in.

Out of the blue, he told me that he wanted to move to another state and look for work there. Why? I asked anxiously. I just have a feeling about it, he said, and I know we’ll both like it there.

I’ll have to quit my job. I’ll not have any income, and neither will he, I thought. His idea is crazy! However, I finally agreed to sell our home because after awhile I began to feel right about it. Then, I was excited that we were again both on the same track.

Before we left, one day I visited a local bicycle shop. The smell of fresh rubber and the glint of sunlight on brightly painted bikes exhilarated me. A young man who worked there approached me. Are you trying to make a decision? he asked.

No. I don’t want a bike. My husband likes them, though.

The young salesman shook his head. I didn’t mean a decision about a bike. Are you trying to decide about a trip, or about a move of some kind?

I was startled.

Go! he exclaimed, without my having said another word. It’s time for you to move! Where you’ll go is a great place for you! You’ll buy a home there that is much nicer than the one you now have. You must leave here. It’s a crucial part of your destiny.

He doesn’t know me. Why would he say things like this? I was later to learn that he was a clairvoyant, a member of a local psychic circle.

Before long, my husband and I sold our house and moved to the state he was drawn to. We were staying in a hotel in a 200-year-old town that had a historic university. Within a week, he was offered a professorship, and I was admitted as a student in the university’s law school. Soon, we bought a wonderful home and settled in!

Can you imagine how surprised and happy we were? However, this happiness only came to the forefront after I let go of my struggles with doubt and uncertainty. Now, I felt very glad we’d made this decision.

I became an attorney. I began to realize that although studying law was very empowering to me, I had a different mission in life. Law school helped me understand our nation and what we stand for. As stated in our Declaration of Independence, the pursuit of happiness is an essential part of who we are.

I was offered a position leading workshops at a well-known spiritual center nearby. That involvement nudged me even further into exploring happiness and positivity and celebration and inner spirituality.

image011.jpg

As time moved on, I began to have an ongoing heartfelt desire to help people improve their experience of happiness. That desire has led me deeply into an understanding of personal spirituality and its effect on true happiness.

I’ve written How to Be Happy as a pathway for your contemplation and meditation. These practices hopefully shall make it easier for you to improve and expand your positive growth. This self-help book is not casual reading. It includes many exciting, enlightening questions for you to ponder. You’ll encounter doors that can go wide open when you are seeking the meaning and spiritual power
