Becoming Happy

Dear Unhappy Person,

Having spent many, many wasted years on trying to be happy and not finding happiness, I went through 10 long years of severe illness with lots of pain. In this desert of pain I found God waiting for me and I found happiness. I wish you a journey filled with God. I would never wish the pain I suffered on anyone. I will wish you joy and happiness. God is waiting, you can be happy.

Albert Einstein who is considered a genius once said if you can’t explain something to a 7 year old you don’t understand it.

So here are the steps to become happy: 1. Love GOD

2. Love Each Other

It is all about priorities and making each other happy. Surround yourself with positive people. Positivity is just as infectious as negativity. Surround yourself with positive. Be grateful. You are here for a reason and God has a plan. God loves you even when you aren’t loveable. Love each other. God created all of us. God gives us life and God gives us strength. We own nothing. God owns everything. Ask God for what you need. God is all about his children and you are his children. Act like the children of the king of the universe. You are not trash so don’t act like trash. God expects us to come to him with our problems.

I sure wish I could change how you feel. Don’t trust your emotions, they lie to you. Trust God, he doesn’t lie and never will.

What you focus on you will get more of. If you focus on money, you will get more money and everything else you have of value will disappear. If you focus on family, you will get more family. If you focus on God, you will get not only a relationship with our Heavenly Father, you will get everything else besides including trouble.

When you make a vow keep it. If you have vowed to love someone the rest of your life, then get busy with the loving. For you never know when your life will end. Never ever let the last words you say to someone be something you will regret. Always show love. Always respect, everyone is going through a battle and need all the help they can get. Pray for each other and for me. I can use all the help I can get also.

This life is temporary. You are eternal, your body is not. This life affects the next life. Tread lightly in this life, be kind to each other and especially to your family.

Your family is the most important social group you can be in. God put his son in a family. God did not use a village to raise his son. God gave a child a mother and a father as it is better to have two parents than to only have one. If you are a parent, you are called to be a protector of one of God’s children. Teach your children. How are they to learn if no one teaches them?

If you are married, then you are called to be a spouse. Love your beloved mate. Tell each other you love them. Show your love with your actions. Let your spouse be your best friend. If you were asked who your best friends was, would you answer your husband or your wife? Love the mate the Lord has given you. The grass is not greener on the other side, it is just on the other side.

Follow the ten commandments. God didn’t write them in stone for no reason. These are your foundation of society. With out boundaries, we are just empty stars wandering around the universe lost and alone. This is not a good way to be.
