Your words
can become Jewels
to the ears
of others.
Life
is a Gift.
Enjoy it.
And
share it.
Life is
filled
with Beautiful things
to look forward to.
.
Breathe deeply,
relax, calm down
and you will feel better.
.
God
Loves you,
and will always be with
you.
Love
is a warm hug
for the Soul,
wrapping us in a soothing embrace,
and carrying us to a place
of Inner Harmony
and Grace.
Love
is as soothing as a gentle stream.
.
In every moment,
True Love brings
Peace
in every breath.
In the silence,
with Prayer and being aware,
you come to know
yourself,
and be more
than you can be.
.
ALL
things are possible,
with Love.
“7 Beloved, let us Love one another,
for Love is from God,
and whoever Loves has been born of God
and knows God.
8Anyone who does not Love
does not know God,
because God is Love.”
– 1 John 4:7-8
Every
act of Love
adds another layer of Beauty,
creating a Haven for the senses.
.
Be Grateful
for the Oasis of Calm
that Love gives.
Life
is so Beautiful.
It causes us
to reflect on Love,
and Eternity.
God
opened the door for you.
Walk through it.
Love
is so simple.
.
And we make it
so complicated.
.
Let us take a moment
to think,
and go back to
the basics of Love,
the matter–of–factness,
the lack of hatred,
the plain simplicity and honesty
of feeling..
It is
so nice to know,
that in this moment
someone is smiling,
and someone is Hoping
Tomorrow will be a better day.
.
And it will.
“Given so much Time,
the “impossible” becomes possible,
the possible probable,
and the probable virtually certain.
One only has to wait:
Time itself performs the Miracles.”
– George Wald on ‘The Origin of Life’,
(Nobel Prize Physiology in Medicine)
.Let us Pray
for God
to raise us up,
to walk on stormy seas,
to be strong.
.
When
we are on His Shoulders
we can stand on Mountains,
and survive stormy seas.
.
Yes,
you can be
more than you can be.
..
Prayer
makes us think of what might be
beyond comprehension.
We
are all
pure energy,
Divine and Infinite Intelligence.
.
We are Eternal Beings
who are forever Living
in Love,
the Love of God.
.
When
we decide
to come Home
and Live in Love,
in this Time and space,
we will come to Know
True Love,
and learn about Life
from a different perspective.
.
We are powerful Creators
and we Create
through our Loving Thoughts.
We
can see straight ahead
through the reflecting Sunbeams
on its surface of reality.
.
Life
is so incredibly Beautiful..
We
rush through Life,
and do not pause to see the
Beauty.
“A smile
is the light in the window
of your face,
that tells people
you’re at home.”

are Infinitely Blessed,
Beautiful,

Goodnight.

Here are a dozen research-tested happiness activities you can start practicing today.
By Stacey Kennelly | August 9, 2012Sonja Lyubomirsky’s book The How of Happiness offers readers more than a dozen everyday activities they can practice to become happier in the short and long term. Lyubomirsky compiled the list of activities after conducting and reviewing years of research about what distinguishes happy from unhappy people.
Below are some of the main activities Lyubomirsky and her colleagues have identified that make people happier. Click on the links next to some of the activities for instructions (created by Lyubomirsky’s lab) on how to practice them.
To help you decide which of these activities might be right for you, read about how Lyubomirsky and graduate student Kristin Layous have been exploring the best ways to practice some of these activities and why some of these activities may work for some people but not others.
For more on these activities, also see Jason Marsh’s article on “The Hows of Happiness” and download our “Six Habits of Happiness” poster.
Do more activities that truly engage you. At home and at work, seek out more challenging and absorbing experiences in which you “lose yourself,” experiencing what researchers call “flow.”
Savor life’s joys. Pay close attention to life’s momentary pleasures and wonders through thinking, writing, or drawing, or by sharing them with others. 
Download instructions for the “three good things” exercise — a way to help you savor the good in your life.
Learn to forgive. Keep a journal or write a letter in which you work on letting go of anger and resentment toward someone who has hurt or wronged you.
Practice acts of kindness. Do good things for others—whether friends or strangers, directly or anonymously, spontaneously or planned. Download instructions.
Nurture relationships. Pick a relationship in need of strengthening, and invest time and energy in healing, cultivating, affirming, and enjoying it.
Cultivate optimism. Keep a journal in which you imagine and write about the best possible future for yourself, or practice looking at the bright side of every situation. Download instructions.
Avoid over-thinking and social comparison. Use strategies (such as distraction) to cut down on how often you dwell on your problems, and guard against comparing yourself to others.
Develop strategies for coping. Practice ways to endure or surmount a recent stress, hardship, or trauma.
Count your blessings. Express gratitude for what you have — either privately, through contemplation or journaling, or to someone else — or convey your appreciation to people whom you’ve never properly thanked. Download instructions for keeping a gratitude journal and for writing a gratitude letter.
Strengthen your spiritual connections. Religious and spiritual people are happier, perhaps because of the social connections they get through their community.
Commit to your goals. Pick one, two, or three significant goals that are meaningful to you, and devote time and effort to pursuing them. Download instructions for using your strengths to help you achieve your goals.
Take care of your body. This could mean exercise, of course, but also meditating, smiling, or laughing.
