It Has Always Been In You

The deepest moments of happiness are those we experience inside of us. It is when we realize that happiness does not depend on what happens outside but inside of us.

Happiness, contentment, and inner peace are nothing we receive from the outside. If we don’t feel it inside, we cannot feel it at all. As long as we blame the circumstances for how we feel, we have not yet understood that what we feel is a decision induced by our thoughts. The way we decide to feel defines how we experience the circumstances. How we experience the circumstances makes us act and react to how we deal with them. It is crucial whether we take responsibility and make a change or sit, feel sorry, and let the circumstances push us around. In understanding, we reach a place inside of us where healing can take place in an instant. It is that sacred place where alignment happens and where the power of your divinity is located.

The intention behind this post is the video below. I know I shared it already, but I felt like it was time to share it again. Whenever I watch it, the concept of inner peace, happiness, and contentment blossoms inside of me like a sunflower. Please grant yourself 3 minutes and let this video take you to the most comforting and aligning zones inside of your beautiful being. I want you to get in touch with your sacred place… right now.

In Love, Light, and Health

Happiness, Joy, Love, should start inside and not be dependant on circumstances as you said. When we can achieve this state of being then what is outside of us will benefit from what is already inside of us. Absolutely wonderful thoughts, Erika and thank you for sharing the video.

It is such an amazing insight that we have the potential for happiness inside ourselves. We can never lose it, we only need to re-activate it! I thank you and I am happy you liked the video😊

If we constantly depended on outside influences for happiness, we would only be setting ourselves up for disappointment because of the perceived inconsistency. You’re very welcome, dear friend and will add this video to my saved list 😊

I had a lovely feathered visitor that brought me back into the now Erika…now food, now play, now curiosity, now snuggles…and even now chats. The past never existed for him, nor the future…he was just in the now which didn’t give me a chance to drag myself backward or forward either 😂 🤣
A great lesson learned from a master. When the student is ready, the teacher will come 🙏🏽 😀
Great post dear lady, your words are are most certainly from a teacher also 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

That’s the point! And I think that is why nature is so reconnecting for us. Nature simply is, a bird, a bee, a bug, a plant, a tree, a stone… they don’t question their existence or their purpose. They don’t complain about the weather. They simply live the life they were made for. No ego and distorted mind in the way which means, living a life in the present moment. Even only that thought already feels aligning 😊🙏💖🐥

Most certainly dear lady, and we are learning. It just takes a little while to be strong in our hearts and believe that we can do anything we set our minds to. This conditional journey is just scrubbing us up for the unconditional one, and as you just said, aligning us onto that very path 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

Indeed, it is a process and part of the journey that we discover this insight again. Your words say it so beautifully and comforting again, that the path of life is laid out on a ground of unconditional love. Thank you, Mark 🙏😊🙏

Erika, well said. We should not give our power away. We choose if we want to be happy or angry or sad…I shared a quote from a friend who was a high school counselor. She would say, if you choose not to take offense, then you are not offended. Keith

I love what she said. It is all about that and it is so simple! Yes, how we want to feel is a decision directed by the thoughts we choose. It is not always easy to step aside and use our thoughts as a constructive tool (which is actually the purpose) but we can practice it and gain a new way of positive reflex. Thank you for your comment, Keith 😊

Erika, thanks. You and I have discussed that we can be self-fulfilling prophets. If we wake up and say to ourselves, let’s make it a great day, the chances are heightened it will. The converse is also true. Keith

Right, we were talking about it. You said it, Keith, the way we encounter life it will answer, either way! Let’s choose our thoughts wisely!

I really enjoyed this video Erika. I was telling my son just yesterday that there’s always another way to look at things. A shift in perspective and a change in attitude. Once we can achieve this, the possibilities are endless and hope is alive. One of my favorite quotes is, “When you can change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
Wonderful post my friend ❤

That’s the point! There is not only one side but at least two sides and how those two sides appear and how strong they feel is part of the way we look at it. I love that quote too a lot and it was one of those that supported big changes in my life. The way we perceive things is resulting from the way we think and the way we think is a decision. How we want to experience out lives is starting with our thoughts.
I am happy you liked the post and enjoyed the video, dear Maria 💖

I am delighted Erika you re-shared this video again my friend.. I cannot remember it… But then I forget such a lot.. 🙂
And yes, we already have all that which we need inside of us…. Happiness is a state of BE-ing within… Not an external Thing we go in-search of..
Which is why I am always so happy and content within my NOW moments within my Gardens… Nature surrounds me within its calming balm, and my BE-ing absorbs its energy…
It is cold and raining outside today… Yet I took a short walk and was invigorated by the wind, and the rain upon my face… Happiness is our perception of our experience… We choose how to embrace it, ‘ Right Now’…. Such an appropriate name sake of the video creator..

Sending Huge hugs Erika … Much love my friend ❤

I feel exactly the same, Sue. It is litereally drawing me into my garden since this is where my heart finds rejuvenation, energy, wholeness… home. And I agree, even the “bad” weather has the ability to make us feel alive and feel connected in another way. I love being outside in such a weather and…. coming home again… lol.
I know this video for more than 10 years and I come across it about once a year. When I do, I cannot help it but need to share it again. It is so healing and calming.

I am very happy you enjoyed and liked it, Sue 💖
