This is the season of resurrection.  Just as  the signs of new life, as in the changes of season, that are appearing all around are beginning to show, so too now is a good time  to allow the good seeds that have been planted within all of us to blossom.  Just as Mother Nature is revealing her new life for all to see its a good time for us to do the same. Just as nature  allows the darkness and dead of winter to pass away so too we should attempt to let new life blossom within us.  Let the light, 'your' light that is within you shine forth.

SUMMER: 'TIME TO PURSUE HAPPINESS'

(flowerhomes.blogspot.com/2013/09/types-of-flowers_6.html)

Yes, its summer time and it has been said the "living is easy".  Perhaps it should be, but for many that is not the case.  For many of us,  that "sweet bird of paradise" is sometimes so elusive many have given up trying to capture it.  But do not fear, happiness can be had although as with many other good things in life, it has to be worked at.

Making up your mind to be happy is what you have to do  to gain even a glimpse of that state of being.  Its a mindset and attitude that is often best obtained through your own efforts. Why, because  sometimes people, circumstances and just living life will not allow you to be and have the happiness you desire and are seeking. Which is why happiness is an innate quality you should first seek within yourself and not rely on others to fulfill your happiness expectations.
Meditation is a great way to relax, strengthen your inner-being and help obtain a state of  inner happiness and peace.

What does it take to Be Happy? Author Randy Taran, founder and Chief Happiness Officer of Project Happiness, in an article posted on HuffPost Living entitled "Authentic Happiness: 3 Simple Steps to Find Courage to Be Yourself" posed a question.  "Are you giving enough attention the clues your inner voice is sending?"  If you are not, here from her article are 3 simple ways she list that you might use to get started.

Authentic Happiness from the inside.
