Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

I’ve come to think that flourishing consists of putting yourself in situations in which you lose self-consciousness and become fused with other people, experiences, or tasks. It happens sometimes when you are lost in a hard challenge, or when an artist or a craftsman becomes one with the brush or the tool. It happens sometimes while you’re playing sports, or listening to music or lost in a story, or to some people when they feel enveloped by God’s love. And it happens most when we connect with other people. I’ve come to think that happiness isn’t really produced by conscious accomplishments. Happiness is a measure of how thickly the unconscious parts of our minds are intertwined with other people and with activities

Today’s Mantra: Happiness is a decision, not a destination.
You CAN choose to love your body. You CAN choose to be happy with what you have, even while working on making your life better. Perfect doesn’t exist, and its dangerous to chase it thinking it will make you happy.
The people I’m drawn to love seemingly love their bodies no matter what. They don’t let their weight or flaws dictate how they feel about themselves. They will throw on a bikini without thinking twice, because anyone who would dare judge them is simply projecting their own insecurities. They know they’re not perfect: and they don’t care.
Work that body love muscle just as hard as the rest of you, and DECIDE to not let anything get in the way of your own happiness: especially yourself.
