Gratiatude, Happiness, Motivation, Discernment

When your motivation wanes and you feel like you are unhappy in your life that means it is time to take a closer look at your life and examine the illusions that may be affecting you. It can be painful to directly face the truth about yourself and the life you have created. It is time to take a close look in the mirror and be willing to expose and address every aspect of your life and your character. Take a close look at what motivates all of your actions. Those things that are motivated by selfish desires and attachment to the pleasures of the material world will bring only temporary pleasure but will lead you away from long-term happiness and true spiritual advancement. It is only when you are focused upon the real desires of the soul that you will experience true happiness, real joy. One of the best ways to continually connect with the spirit is by developing a sense of gratitude. When you are thankful and appreciate all of the blessings that God has given to you then your happiness will automatically flourish. Simply continue to be always grateful for everything and see every aspect of life for what it truly is, a miracle given to you by a most merciful and loving God. In this way you will be motivated to share this love with others and you will experience true and lasting joy.
