The Secret To Happiness

The secret? There isn’t one.

It’s all so painfully simple it’s avoided by most.

Stop reaching.

Stop wanting.

Stop wishing.

Stop hoping.

Stop attempting to understand things beyond thought.

Stop overthinking the person you’re going to become.

The person you want to be.

Slimmer.

Fitter.

Smarter.

Richer.

More productive.

Energetic.

Stop searching for answers.

Trying to love yourself.

Trying to follow the conventional advice.

Trying to mediate more, read more, train more, walk more.

Trying. Trying. Trying.

Reaching up to something we haven’t yet got.

Trying to Become more than we already are. (As if that’s even a possibility.)

Stop begging.

Stop resisting.

Stop believing these issues are unique or independent.

Throw caution to the wind.

Give no fucks.

Just be.

That’s the long and short of it.

Just be.

At the Center of all this reaching and longing we are never simply ‘Being.’

Say it again.

Just Be.

And again.

Just Be.

Breathe it.

Live it.

Embrace it.

Love it.

Just be.
