The road to bliss is a process—a process within you, your
community, your state, your country and your world. Within
each of us is the ability to choose harmony and peace over
dissonance and vengeful, fear-based reactions to the
circumstances of life. If we choose to follow our hearts
and listen to our spirits, we can choose a better way of
thinking and acting. We will have an impact and lasting
effect on others and the world around us.
So if you want to live a blissful life, you have to be the
embodiment of bliss and all the universal components that
connect you to bliss. Don’t just externalize what you
want. Make it your essence. You have to become what you
seek—be the essence of what you desire. Without fear, just
be your amazing self, an embodiment of the facets of bliss.
Let these things be true for you:
- Be Forgiveness
You have learned to be in a state of clemency and kindness
for others always. It has become your nature to
automatically forgive without a second thought. It is now
part of your soul, your essence, your core to act with
mercy and pardon for all those who unknowingly bestow pain
and suffering toward you. You hold dear the words of
Jesus, as he hung, crucified upon the cross; “Forgive them
Father, for they know not what they do.”
You are continually exercising forgiveness in your daily
life and are able to receive forgiveness from those you
have trespassed against. You walk in the grace of the
heavens because you know nothing can be more blissful than
to know that God smiles down upon you. You are forgiveness
and your soul has been forgiven.
- Be Love
You have opened your heart and mind to the divine
possibility that everything vibrates at certain levels.
You understand lower vibrations of negativity, anger and
fear, and higher vibrations of love and compassion. People
can feel the “vibes” in the air and they are contagious.
You send vibrations of love and joy from the depths of your
heart and soul. You find, in turn, you have an effect on
the world around you. You don’t just talk about loving the
earth and mankind, you feel it in your being. Combating
the feelings of fear, anger, vengeance and negativity, you
have replaced them with thoughts and actions of kindness
and love, and live in harmony and bliss with everyone
around you and the world.
- Be Peace
You have peace in your life because you practice peace,
every moment of every day. You do not forget your center
and the knowledge that peace is only a state of mind—a
choice you make. You are quiet and calm and do not become
reactive but are active. Close your eyes and breathe in
the calmness of the universe. You have planted the seeds
of peace deep within, and bliss blossoms from your soul.
- Be Beauty
Beauty is much more than skin deep—it radiates from inside
our souls. Knowing that, you are not afraid to let your
tender, creative self shine through. You are joyful and
spread happiness. You forgive and are peaceful. Your true
inner beauty is seen. You have learned to be loving and
true to yourself. Affectionately, you allow your beautiful
self to radiate from the depths of your soul. You truly
know the essence of your inner splendor and do not keep it
hidden within you, but let it shine through for all to see.
Because you connect with your inner beauty, people see you
as a beautiful person. You inspire others to allow
themselves to be beautiful.
- Be Powerful
You speak your truth with integrity. Standing in your
power means to know yourself and what you are doing at all
times. With honesty and truth, you stand for who and what
you believe in. You respect and appreciate others’
opinions and values. You look for a harmonious solution to
every situation. You speak with wisdom, not spite. You
stay loyal and true to your values and morals. Without
fear, you move forward, generously leading the way for
those less courageous than yourself. You radiate love and
security, and inspire blissfulness and courage through your
actions.
- Be Patience
You are willing to wait and accept the quiet times between
action and results. There is no sense of urgency or rush,
for you know that scuttling and hurry only leads to stress
and dissonance. There is calmness about you as you quietly
go about your busy day. Not lazy at all, you are very
productive, but cool and exacting in action. You realize
life is meant to be savored and those who speed through
miss out on the glories of existence. You live in the
moment and savor every second of your gift of life. At the
end of a hectic day, you are still full of vigor and zeal,
for you have not wasted precious energy on hurry, worry and
stress. You are looked up to and many seek your counsel,
no matter what your position in work, school, community or
family may be. You are patient, calm and peaceful. Your
powerful essence draws others to you.
- Be Abundance
You know the meaning of abundance is not being monetarily
rich, but wealthy with bliss. You are filled with love,
peace, joy and harmony. You spread your abundance
selflessly to all you come in contact with. You are a
sage, a prophet and a preacher of love and happiness. You
empower and motivate through your shining example the
knowledge that we need not be rich to have lavish abundance
in our lives.
You are forever grateful for what you have and you
constantly show your appreciation and respect for those who
help you and to the heavens above. You are a pillar of
strength and wisdom and freely share the lessons of life
you have learned. You have no expectations of others, but
endeavor to experience what everyone and what life has to
offer. You walk humbly with an open heart, greeting
everyone as brothers and sisters on this journey of life.
You are a shining example of how people should live—not
perfect, just striving to be better than you were
yesterday.
As we endeavor to walk the path of bliss—to act out of
spirit for the good of all—we venture out alone. We must
have the courage to stand true, to know the potential of
blissful living. Courage is not the absence of fear, but
the ability to move forward into uncertainty while facing
your fears. Just the act of commitment and effort will
bring you the power to adapt and change.
Know that you will lose some friends, but gain many more.
Know you can light the path but you can never make someone
walk the road. Not everyone will understand your
commitment to living a better life. Most will not have the
courage or the will to change their habits and know
themselves for who they are. Stand in your truth with
integrity and fortitude. Don’t fear what others may think.
Seek encouragement, wisdom and praise from inside. Know
that by following your heart, you will inspire others to
follow their own hearts too. Know that when you connect
with the bliss of life, your world will be transformed and
truly amazing!
