The Joy of Living

Life is a wonderful gift and it brings you so much joy if you would only allow it to speak to you more. There are so many reasons why a person who is on this beautiful earth should know all that is bountiful. So let me illustrate a little for those who find it difficult to perceive.

• When you woke this morning did you see the absolutely incredibly beautiful sun and did you allow it to caress your face as you went about your day? Do you know that the gift of the sunshine is one of growth and its shining makes you feel alive and blessed, and when you stop and look at the new day you are actually taking some thought to say, this is amazing.  That will bring into your life so many wondrous feelings of excitement and joy that you will scarcely be able to contain your delight.
  
  
• When you greeted the first person you saw did you do that with love or did you merely grunt your acknowledgement of this person whom you share your life with on a daily basis? You see appreciation is a beautiful thing when it comes from the depths of the heart, as it allows everyone to feel special and that is not a bad thing now is it? So think a little even if you live with yourself did you then greet yourself with love?
  
  
• When you ate your first meal today did you allow it to settle in you like a warm burst of goodliliciousness (Sanjee’s word) or did you gulp it down without any thought of what it was giving you on this most happy day? How sad it is when a human forgets the delightful feeling of the juices that run through your mouth and which make you feel comfortable whenever you eat something so delicious as food.
  
  
• Are you doing what you love or are you working for the money or the security you see for it is really so sad when people are forgetting to allow themselves the expression of their hearts No one should do what is necessary for security if that one doesn’t enjoy the whole experience. It is like eating half rotten food so you can get the nutrients but not allowing yourself to enjoy the taste. Not a good thing to do if the soul wants to stay happy.
