“Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling.”
-Margaret Lee Runbeck
There is a woman at my gym. Her name is Wendy. She inspires me. Everyday I watch her come in with her radiant smile. Wendy personifies the statement above. How did she get there?
If I were to reflect upon what it is that makes Wendy smile as she does every day, I would say that her happiness comes from within. This morning she was talking about someone who was sick. Someone who carries a lot of worry. Although now retired, the sick person still carries all the stress from her former job. How many of us have kept jobs we strongly disliked because the pay or the benefits were good. Then out we go trying to fill the internal chasm with stuff. The void we feed from the outside just gets fatter. It is never satisfied and it never goes away. We can not fill the internal void from the outside. Won’t happen, ever!
No life is perfect every day, but how we see our days and all those moments throughout is the road we are traveling on. Put on those glasses with the silver lining and start seeing the happiness that paves the road of your life.
Namaste!
Bianca
