Deserving Happiness

Posted on April 14th, 2009

What do we do when we find ourselves being dragged down by the weights and heaviness of the world we live in?

Is it possible to keep ourselves above the crap that brings us down?

I believe it is. I also believe that it’s not something most of us have trained ourselves to do.

Can we accomplish such an unknown feat?

I believe we can.

Does it have to be difficult?

No, I believe it CAN be easy and effortless.

So why does it seem so difficult to pull ourselves out of those heavy states?

Simply because we have a tremendous amount of old programming to overcome.

We’ve been programmed by our environment, our friends, our family, the media, and just about everything that comes into our lives.

Some more common examples are “You have to work hard to get what you want”, “It’s not easy”, “Love hurts”… and so on

The truth, as I’ve come to understand it currently, is that love itself does not hurt. It’s the most beautiful and magnificent feeling.

What does hurt is that feeling of loss or being without that feeling of love.

When we can generate our own feelings of love, we don’t rely on an outside source to fill that void. We become responsible for our own state.

So we put the responsibility on someone else to continue providing that feeling for us.
When that feeling is no longer being generated inside of us, we look at what someone else is doing or not doing that is causing that lack.
Truth is that we’re in a different mindset. We’re responsible for our own happiness and generating our own love. One of the old beliefs I’ve come to be aware of is riddled in some of our more common sayings.
“You make me happy”
“I give you my heart”
“You complete me”

Think about those for a moment…

Without you, I’m not happy
I have no heart of my own
Without you I’m incomplete

Some minor changes that shft the energy of those words and thoughts

I’m happy with you – We’re both happy
My heart overflows with love – I generate so much love inside of myself that I have more than enough for others.
I am complete with you – I am whole, and I share that with you.

Our thoughts are very powerful indeed. When we are confident, full of self worth and value, very little bothers us or gets us down. It simply doesn’t effect us.
When we start accepting the negatives of others, we start generating those negative programs within ourselves. Then we become a self propogating negative program generating a downward spiral.

So, how can we shift?

A few simple steps that I’ve found work wonders for me.

1. Recognize – Recognize that you are feeling heavy. OK, I’m feeling heavy.

2. Change – Step out of the game. I choose not to play in a game that doesn’t make me happy.

3. Accept – Understand that you deserve to choose creating happiness in your life. I am worthy of happiness.

So, Let it go, let it flow.

Step into your own happiness. You deserve it!
