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.

We always have enough to be happy if we are enjoying what we do have.
There is nothing that you can do to change the present moment. It simply is. You may be able to change the situation one second, one minute, one hour, or one day from now, but there's absolutely nothing you can do to change the way things are right here and now. By not getting irritated you will be more effective in doing what needs to be done to change the situation for the next moment.
We see things not as they are, but as we are. Your addictions distort how you process the enormous flow of information that is constantly flooding in through all of your sensory inputs.
Think of the world as a loving place that is designed to give you everything that you need.
It is only your mental habits and your selected memories of how you think things are that keep you from moulding things in your life in a more harmonious way.
Happiness does not lie in getting people and things outside of you lined up exactly to suit your desires.
By tuning in to your minute-to-minute stream of consciousness, you discover the addictions that make you worried, anxious, resentful, uptight, afraid, angry, bored, etc. You thus use every uncomfortable emotion as an opportunity for consciousness growth. Even though you may still be feeling emotional and uptight, you begin to get at the roots of your ups and downs - your brief bits of pleasure and your long periods of unhappiness.
Happiness is experienced when your life gives you what you are willing to accept.
Be aware that the difference between heaven and earth is not so much altitude but attitude.
Conscious people always have a choice of whether to try to modify the actions of people around them or to change their response to the incoming stimuli.
