The Irritation Is NOT In The Event, It’s In YOU!

What is Happiness? When we say we are seeking happiness what we really mean is, we will be happy when we get everything we want. Unfortunately life is not built like that.

Many seek happiness by wanting the world to conform to their desires. They work hard and attempt to influence people to do what they want, even manipulate or tell lies to bend reality to their needs. This is the ego’s way of being happy. It never works.

What we really seek is not happiness but peace. Why? Peace comes from bending ourselves to reality. The ego never wants us to do this. Bending ourselves means to accept what is. No matter what occurs we can be at peace with it when we can look at the event and say to ourselves “Interesting that this happened, now what am I going to do about it”?
