Happiness Is Like...



Happiness is like peeing your pants.  Everyone can see it, but only you can feel its warmth.  The point is, only you can feel what you’re feeling; no one else can.  And only you create the feeling for yourself; no else does it for you.

Others can observe your manifestations, but only you know how it feels to you. 

Paying attention to how you feel is at the heart of any creation.  How you feel, or how you want to feel is why you want anything…and why you don’t want the things you don’t want.  You want whatever it is you want because at the core of it, you’ve attached or associated with it, an emotion – a feeling it’s going to “give” you.  So when you think about the things you want, think about how you think you would feel if you were living it, having it, driving it, kissing it.  Go ahead, explore how you would feel.  And then explore some more.  Describe it in emotional terms.  It feels free and fun.  It feels easy.  I feel successful.  Successful feels prosperous.  Success feels like choices.  Success feels like possibilities.  Success feels open wide and full of possibilities. 

Find the emotions, describe and explore them – because at the heart of everything you want is an emotion.

And for the same reasons that you want what you want, you don’t want things because you also associate that you’re going to feel a certain way, or you would feel a certain way if that unwanted thing happened.  You fear the emotion more than you fear the circumstance. 

When you come to acknowledge that within everything you want and everything you don’t want is either a feeling that you want, or emotions that you want to avoid, that gives you the opportunity to explore the good feelings and revel in them more, or, address those uncomfortable emotions you’re trying to avoid and soothe them into a better feeling place.  You don’t have to hold out for the manifestation of the thing you want before you can feel the good-feelings you associate with it, and neither do you have to hold yourself in a place of resisting the negative-feeling emotions either.  If you imagine something you don’t want, or something you fear might happen, take the opportunity to feel your way to a better feeling place.

You can find a way to feel good and feel the warmth – and you don’t need to pee your pants to do it.
