To be upset over what you don't have is to waste what you do have.
The love and peace of higher consciousness flow from just being - and enjoying it all. Anything you do will not be enough unless you feel fulfilled in just being. Usually we are not happy when we find doing whatever it is that we think we have to do. Doing creates expectations that your world and the people around you may or may not fit. The things we do disappear in time. We must learn to appreciate just being alive in the nowness of whatever situation we are in.

A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world.
By fully tuning in to the now moment in your life, you will discover that you always have enough to enjoy every moment of your life.

You are not responsible for the programming you picked up in childhood. However, as an adult, you are one hundred percent responsible for fixing it.
