The Soup Is Hot
“Everyday happiness means getting up in the morning, and you can’t wait to finish your breakfast. You can’t wait to do your exercises. You can’t wait to put on your clothes. You can’t wait to get out. And you can’t wait to come home, because the soup is hot.” – George Burns (1896-1996) actor, comedian
Happiness is not out there, in a magical kingdom, waiting to be found. Happiness is being you, in your daily life, doing little things or big things…. Happiness is flowing through you, vibrating in you, all there, all yours, all the time. Happiness is what you feel when you are being and flowing without resistance. It’s nothing magical – it’s natural.
Birds Of Sorrow
“You cannot prevent the birds of sorrow from flying over your head, but you can prevent them from building nests in your hair.” Chinese Proverb
Compassion, yes. Taking all sorrows as your own, not so much…. How can we be of service if we also get lost? We can’t.
To complete the thought…
“When you are feeling the discomfort from seeing other people in a lackful or needy situation, and you decide to help them from your place of discomfort, no lasting value ever occurs, for two important reasons: first, you are not in alignment with the Energy of your Source, and so you have no real value to give; and second, your attention to their need only amplifies their need.
Of course, it is a wonderful thing to help others, but you must do it from your position of strength and alignment, which means you must be in alignment with their success as you offer assistance, and not in alignment with their problem.
When your awareness of their situation makes you uncomfortable and you offer help to make them feel better and to make yourself feel better, you are not in the Vortex and you are not helping. When you feel an inspired eagerness to offer something because you want to participate in their happy, successful process, your attention to their success harmonizes with the point of view of your Source; and the infinite resources of the Universe are at your disposal. And that does help.” – Abraham (Ester Hicks)
