The 74th Inspiration.

Greetings,
I'm in the midst of total insanity, but all is well, and I look forward to sharing the insights coming from all of this as soon as I recover!  But for now, ponder this:
Most of us are trained, and unfortunately limited, to feel a kind of happiness that is based on what's happening to us; Things go well, we get what we want, and we're happy. We don't get what we want, chaos ensues, and we get unhappy.

The key is to realize that there's a more savory kind of happiness that can result from no longer being at the mercy of your emotions and your old programs. You can experience a happiness that comes from a bigger view of how you are creating peace, stability, and an accepting attitude. A satisfaction that's no longer dependent on all the dramas of life, but on the fact that you can handle it all regardless of what's unfolding in front of you. And even more importantly, that you can trust yourself to handle what you're experiencing "emotionally" and "in your mind" as well. There's a natural joy that arises when you no longer feel so threatened by your circumstances, "or", by your complaining mind's negative perspectives.

It's a higher quality and more refined flavor of happiness, because it's based in the truth of who you are. It's coming from your higher wisdom and not from your personalities programmed reactions to the ups and downs of life.  It's my heartfelt intention and the purpose of KnowComplaints to offer you a chance to experience this as a possibility.  To re-visit the inspirations and tweachings, go to: http://bryanzerr.blogspot.com

Here is this week's tweachings:

The same programming has many voices. If everyone could hear our thoughts we'd all be embarrassed, yet we'd understand our common challenge.
  
You don't really talk yourself into trust and peace. It's where your soul rests when you let go of the story you think you should be living.

Courage doesn't come from talking yourself into strength and confidence. It comes from not caring about how you feel and just going for it.

Our deep fears don't seem to really ever go away. Peace comes from allowing them, dis-believing them, and acting willfully in spite of them.
  
You can't accurately judge something as "shouldn't have happened", because you can't see the way every detail is going to impact the future.

One moment we can be a victim who feels hurt or the abuser who feels entitled. This dynamic destroys us. Choose compassion and forgiveness.
 
We tell ourselves that things aren't right and we should be unhappy. This opinion is the source of our misery: Not the situations around us.

Best wishes and peace to you,
Bryan
