Build on Love

Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come. 'Ti's grace that hath brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home.'
--John Newton

Today and always, let joy be your compass. When choosing a direction in life, choose the path of your heart. Do what you love, follow your bliss.


Fun is an underestimated emotion in our culture. We are told as children, "If you waste time having fun, you won't get anything serious accomplished." Yet most successful people describe their work as being incredibly joyful. An office that sings with laughter is always more productive. As one executive remarked, "The more I enjoy my work, the more efficient I become."


Joy and laughter improve the quality of our relationships. Couples who lighten up rarely split up. Laughing at a difficult situation fosters detachment and understanding. It is only when we get too serious that trouble arises.


Since love is the highest expression of the Divine, following that path of love and joy will lead you to God-consciousness. What more is there?
