The only thing that prevents us from being happy is thinking.

— Kamand Kojouri

To buy a cake... to howl at the moon... to know true happiness... I am happy.

To know the outcome of a desire means you are relying on what you already know. True change comes in colors you've never imagined. Expect serendipity and surprises ~

We sometimes get together with others hoping their mood will elevate ours. In a way, we want to bring leftovers to the potluck, and we're hoping to fill our plates with apple pie. Energy tells us why this won't happen. When we show up for a buffet of conversations, we will be drawn to the moods that reflect what we brought with us. Our feelings, beliefs, and thoughts seek similar energy fields.

What is not true does not exist at this moment.

When I was in Piazza di Spain, in Rome, I watched (along with others) how many locals came to drink water from the fountain there. The people beside me said to each other "Oh my goodness, how disgusting, people just drink water from anywhere," while the whole time, I was thinking "Oh my goodness, how wonderful, people can drink water from anywhere." We can be in the exact same place, looking at the exact same thing, but see that thing in a completely different way. You can go around the world, and go to all the beautiful places, but never be happy, because happiness is something that you bring inside of you, it is not where you are or what you are looking at, but it is how you are and how you look at.

When there is no purpose of thought or activities to keep us firmly planted in routines, we connect to our personal spirit. Then the adventure begins ~

When we shift from trying to figure it out to feeling our way, insight arrives.

When you're scared, invite your spirit out of hiding. Wear pointed shoes with build in sass > Let your wings take you where your heart trembles > Wave the want that remembers your magic > Bring your green umbrella without apologies.

You have to move forward in life. You can’t sit in the same place, unless you want to, that’s a choice too. But you can’t sit there because someone else says you have to, because your moving forward makes them uncomfortable.” Excerpt From: Steel, Danielle. “Country.” Del Norte Press, 2015-06-16. iBooks.
