Are You Cheating Today Out Of Pleasure?

Would you like to live a better life? To bounce out of bed in the morning, walk with a spring in your step and wear the biggest smile on your face?
Happiness is a choice, but many Australians today are consumed with negativity overload, and unfortunately the content
is full of gloom. Isn't is refreshing to hear good news? Why go through life trying to live in the future when the present is waiting for your attention?.
It is said that gratitude is the greatest emotion. All too often people are reminded of what they don't have, or persuaded to feel less than whole
that there life is lacking in what society reminds 'what you should have'. Take a step back and look around, begin to see with new eyes,
what you have in your life that you can be grateful for. So many times the illusion of tomorrow, the 'I'll be happy when...' cheats the pleasure out of today. How many
times do you worry about what may come rather than relaxing in the now? Children are great teachers and by watching a
child play completely absorbed in participation, you'll witness the joy of the moment. Imagine if you were able to relax
that way? To take 'time out' and even for an hour, wallow in participation of that hour in mind and body.
Try to turn your thoughts to become grateful. The new blade of grass pushing through from under the soil doesn't know fear, it simply knows it's journey.
Look only to the light in the distance, you're on the right path
and gratitude reminds you that reassurance is not comfort but courage is the sustaining support required.
