“Happiness, that grand mistress of the ceremonies in the dance of life, impels us through all its mazes and meandering, but leads none of us by the same route.” — Charles Caleb Colton

Ok, so, we finally got the new promotion at work. We finally got the best new dance title. We married the perfect knight in shining armor. We made 4 new friends. We finally have that perfect figure we’ve always dreamed of…….

We just bought our most sought after shiny new car. We just moved into our lavish dream estate. We finally have enough money saved in the bank to never have to work again…….

We finally get to shop all day. We finally get to relax at a spa all day. We finally get to hang out with our girlfriends- sipping on Margaritas all day long, without any cares in the world…….

But, are we really happy?

I’ve heard people say that money, power, friends, titles, and “clout” can buy happiness.  If this is so true, then why are we not completely fulfilled?  Why are we still searching for deliverance?

Money, power, friends, titles, and “clout” cannot buy happiness.  As a matter of fact, nothing can.  Why is this?  This is because true and genuine happiness is not for sale.  It is, in fact, free!   True and genuine happiness is not something that you can pick out on a store-room rack during a half-price sale, or something that you can try on for size fitting before you make the decision to make a purchase.  True and genuine happiness is not something you can hold in your hands. True and genuine happiness is not physical. And, just for the fact that true and genuine happiness is not physical, then that reassures us all that it innately and freely belongs to all of us.

What exactly is true and genuine happiness? True and genuine happiness is the ultimate intimacy of infinity.  It is that deep inner-fire that ignites pure brilliant bliss of nothing but satisfying arousal.  True and genuine happiness is that personal inner-road that the outside world can never enter, nor tread down- because it’s your very own private and secluded road.  That road only belongs to you.  And, that road is there right now, buried deep within you.

Your true and genuine happiness is unique in that it only belongs to you.  Keep in mind, that this is your very own private and intimate road- no one else can ever understand your sui generis happiness.  The next person’s true and genuine happiness is their very own private and secret experience- and not yours to experience.  We are all on our own private, personal, and sacred journeys.  What resonates with someone else will not necessarily resonate with you.

Your true and genuine happiness does not reside in money, nor other people, nor titles, nor things. Once you realize this truth, you then begin to see that YOU alone are the source of the ultimate happiness in your life. True and genuine happiness resides right within you, right within your sacred space of a place. And, your true and genuine happiness is waiting for you right now- along your journey of a road next to a flowing river called “life”.

This week, find out how deep your true and genuine happiness flows.  Find out exactly where that inner-road resides.  Find out how to get there.  And, then, when you arrive- walk slowly, silently and gracefully along your exclusive path to connect to a deeper road to enlightenment.
