Say it's true



The secret of happiness is in your power to sacrifice and uplift others. Happiness is in giving, not in taking. God will give to you. Trust in the fact. The fact of life is that you and God are one identity. There is no place for duality.

-- Yogi Bhajan

    All really is one, you know.
    I believe that.

  2. Beautiful quote. Somehow giving fills you. When I feel as if I am empty, just quiet renews me again, not taking. So, it must be true.

    Hey, btw, do you have a button that I can add to my sidebar for the Epilepsy walk? I created one for my friend Melissa's MS walk. Hmm...maybe I could figure it out for you.

  7. Being content is happiness isn't it? Then you don't have to think about, is God giving me the good stuff today? When you are content you don't ask, "what don't I have", you just look up and see you have what it is that you can have at that moment.
