Happiness & Humor

The world is an amazing and beautiful place. The only thing going on here is as a species we are not aligned with peace; which believe it or not is our natural state of being as it is for all living things in nature, including Mother Earth herself. Everywhere we look we see famine, war, suffering, and meaningless cruelty. But if we pan wide…if we just zoom out from our limited perspectives and try to catch a glimpse from a global or even universal view if we so dare, we just might see that great healing is occurring on this planet. #chaostheory

Unfortunately, that is not common in our society and most of us adults are just big kids who are still hurting, confused and angry because we are not doing what we love to do and feel shorted in life. We may also feel guilty for how we feel and also pissed off because our feelings are yet again going invalidated. So, how do we stop this toxic cycle and break the chain of guilt and shame motivation?

Two new studies shed further light on the relationship between wealth and happiness. Their findings suggest that money doesn’t fulfill basic psychological needs, like belonging and competence. That’s why making more of it will not increase your happiness, even if you value money above other things. In fact, it may do the opposite. #happiness #ValuingMoney

The very same rare condition known as Williams Syndrome, which causes human beings to be too friendly, may be an expression of genes in your dog that causes him to lick your face with unmitigated glee every time he sees you. This rare genetic expression may also indicate a move toward higher human evolution. #WilliamsSyndrome

It’s not uncommon for us all to get stuck sometimes and feel like our creative juices are simply cut off. But the good news is that there’s usually a simple explanation for what it’s happening and there’s a few things you can do to get those juices flowing once again. With even a simple shift in our energy and perceptions, one can often find inspiration hit like a drum or bursts like water through a dam. Ride the wave as we learn to appreciate the ups and downs of the creative process! #CreativeEnergy

You may have noticed that our world is dualistic in nature. The Universe is always coming into balance with itself; forever infinite, forever expanding and pure Consciousness. We live in a world of extremes and what we perceive to be opposites. Up & down, black & white, alive & dead, abundant & scarce, etc. are all examples of common opposites. And it is through the use and actions around these opposites that the forces of nature and creation play, fight and dance to find and regain balance in all forms of matter and existence. But what if I told it was all an illusion? #duality
