HOLIDAY HAPPINESS THAT LAST
The Holidays are here or just about here depending on which holiday you're celebrating. And many of us can agree that the holidays are for the most part, the
happiest time of the year. A season of giving and receiving when either can bring about enormous happiness. It is known as a time to be full of joy and good cheer, in other words to "rejoice".
Happiness for many depends on mood, how one feels. Receiving gifts usually lifts the mood and makes one feel good especially when its something we really want. But happiness unfortunately for some, just like the holidays quickly passes having been based on the receiving of external material gifts.
This holiday season would be a good time to look beyond the external material gifts we will be given and set aside some time to reflect on the gifts that we receive internally from the eternal spirit that is within us. Take some time this holiday season to come to know and receive the free gifts of grace, hope, and peace that leads to lasting joy. And then freely give them out to others as they have been given to you.

SING THIS SONG THE REST OF THE DAY
Yes, that's what Gayle King said on CBS This Morning (Aug 17th), after interviewing musician Andy Grammer, author of the hit song "Got to Keep Your Head Up". On the show, Andy Grammer spoke about his success and how it came about. He talked about the difficulties and struggles he was having in trying to reach that success.
One day after working the streets all day playing his music and trying to sell his CD's, the end of the day came and he had not sold any of his CD's. He was feeling discouraged but rather than give up, he gave himself a pep talk. As he left the streets that day, he said to himself, I 'm either going to go home and cry or I'm going to write a "jam" right now. His handling of the situation at that moment of discouragement with a decision to do something positive became the impetus for the song that changed his career and began his now very successful music career. Andy credits "Got to Keep Your Head Up" with changing his career.
His story is a reminder to us all that in times of discouragement, when we feel like giving up, and we feel at our lowest because things aren't going as we had hoped, then is the time to keep going. Push still harder even as difficult or impossible as it may seen. Even if no one is there to encourage us, we sometimes have to encourage ourselves just as Andy Grammer did and remember "Got to Keep Your Head Up".

Meeting Life's Challenges with Hope
Meeting life's challenges with hope can sometimes prove to be a difficult task for many causing the question sometimes to be asked "what is hope and how do I get it"? Hope is defined in various ways. It has been defined as a desire, a feeling, an emotional state of being. It is definitely a positive feeling and a state of being to be sought after. It has been said that these are difficult times we live in and certainly that is without question. But an often asked and important question is 'how to overcome' the despair (which is the opposite of hope).
As it has been said before, "having a positive attitude can be hard work and since hope is defined as a state of being and can be said to be based on our attitude and positive outlook , hope too can sometimes for some of us be a struggle to maintain. But there are ways to live in a state of hope even when the pains of life cause us hurt, grief, and heartache, we do not have to let discouragement take over. Below is one way, a meditation on keeping the flame of hope burning bright.
