By Lisa Cypers Kamen, Harvesting Happiness
How can we find happiness in the moment? It starts with making a moment-by-moment choice, not something put on us—or destroyed by—outside forces. It has been proven to me time and time again that grasping for happiness from people and events in our lives will never establish it on any firm foundation.
When we are fully in the present moment instead of absorbed in our thoughts about the past or the future or thoughts about ourselves and how our life is going, life feels good, we feel happy and at peace. However, if we bring thoughts into this moment that cause us to feel unhappy and discontent with the present moment, we won’t experience that inherent happiness and peace. We will think that our life isn’t good, that happiness isn’t available, when it is.
Happiness is something that is pregnant with potential in any given moment of our lives. It is what we do with our thoughts in the moment that will bring us either happiness or unhappiness.
Ask yourself: How do I choose to look at an event or moment in my life? Will it be a positive or negative experience? What impact will it have on you?
“There is no happiness; there are only moments of happiness.”
[anon; Spanish Proverb]
