Happiness is a how; not a what. A talent, not an object.
RECAPPING THIS WEEK ON HAPPINESS AND ON LIVING SUCCESSFULLY WITH SCREWED-UP PEOPLE FOR NOV. 7th TO NOV. 13th. ALONG WITH HOW SAFE IS MEXICO?
Hello Followers,
Welcome to Sunday,
Let’s start out with a question!
Are you bringing love or rather bringing fear into your life?
If you are bringing fear into your life, just remind yourself that your body is changing, as is your mind, so you are not that body or mind.
You were created as a spirit that is pure love.
That is where you want to keep your attention focused.
Forgive yourself and welcome love back into your life.
When you can do this, a kind of balancing occurs.
Rather than atoning for faults with guilt, you are more committed to promoting joy and service.
You will begin to do what you originally came here to do.
Notice the acts of kindness other people do.
"Like branches on a tree, our lives may grow in different directions yet our roots remain as one."
101 WAYS TO HAPPINESS; by Mike Annesley.
Since all the research of keeping healthy, leads to making your cells happy; this book will help your mental health to be happy.
That is the first step in keeping your cells happy and keeping your body healthy.
CHAPTER 1; HAPPILY, YOURSELF
REACT, THEN RESPOND
It’s useful to distinguish between reacting, which is instantaneous and often emotional; and responding, which is more considered and self-aware.
Your mindful response to an event is always going to be more beneficial than your automatic reaction.
When challenges present themselves, the instinctive reaction is often to want to flee from them, whereas the best response is to engage thoughtfully.
QUOTES ABOUT LIVING
HAPPINESS
When you feel you’ve failed at something, it can be anywhere from discouraging to devastating.
The last thing you want to do is try again.
All that effort and it ended in a huge disappointment.
But nothing in its entirely is ever a failure.
For a time, it brought you happiness and nourished your hope; and there were many, many good moments.
How many are you out there are left-handers?
I raise my left hand! When I was growing up, I learned everything right-handed; which made everything I did the wrong way.
WHY ARE THINGS SO TOUGH ON LEFT-HANDERS?

Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does.
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.

Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind than on outward circumstances.

CONTINUING THE SERIES ON HOW SAFE IS MEXICO?
THROUGH PICTURES AND VIDEO'S
Dan and I grabbed an opportunity nine years ago, when we took on the adventure and moved to Mexico. Back then, we didn’t know what to expect, except that both of us were alive and ready for a change. We had been going to Tijuana for cancer treatments and knew somewhat what we were heading into. We ended up living in the center of the country however; better for travel purposes and it was nothing like what we had thought about. To this date, we are back in the states living in Virginia and what we took from Mexico was friendships, culture and understanding of their ways of life.
WITH PICTURES AND VIDEO'S
Through thousands of pictures that I took, Dan and I are showing how safe Mexico is. There is a saying ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’; this is so true! A picture tells a story just as well as, if not better than, a lot of written words.
"Chinese proverb. One picture is worth ten thousand words."
So, we will be posting a gallery of pictures on each post, hopefully you will see each one has a story.
Today will continue the series on LIVING SUCCESSFULLY WITH SCREWED-UP PEOPLE, by Elizabeth B. Brown. Dan and I continue to share ways to benefit and help keep one’s health cells healthy. A wise man told me ten years ago, when one is in balance with themselves; one stays healthy.

CHAPTER 9 – LET THE PAST GO
Today, CONSIDER THE LESSONS LIFE TEACHES –
The worst problems are always the one that belongs to me.
And if that problem hangs you up, regardless of its seriousness; you can be caught in a longing spiral that wants to suck the zest out of your life.
CENTERED ON WHAT YOU DO NOT HAVE, YOU WILL NEVER SEE WHAT YOU DO HAVE.
You must stop and have a good self-talk, then restructure your course.
Perhaps you need to sit down with yourself and ask several pertinent questions?
1. Is what I am doing in the relationship working?
2. Is the relationship important to me?
3. From observation of the past what do I perceive is probable in the future?
4. How can I structure what I do to make the best of my situation?
Tomorrow, ACCEPT YOUR REALITY
This is the time to get ready for food and remedies that heal; alchemy of herbs. In the coming week, Dan and I will be blogging the benefits of ELDER. It’s amazing what and how elder can help keep your body healthy?
The benefits of using elder blossoms, elderflowers are commonly made into teas or taken as a tincture.
When using it for an acute situation or to shorten the duration of a cold or flu, herbalists recommend regularly taking moderate amounts throughout the day.
Storing the tea in a thermos and regularly sipping it is ideal.
For external use, the flowers infuse well into oil that can be made into salves, creams, and serums.
Suggested Elderflower Dosage
Tea: 15-30 grams per day
Tincture: 30-90 drops per hour
NOTE AND REPEAT – PHRASE TO REMEMBER; Health is Wealth
THIS IS AN ENCLOSURE – will be at the end of all the blogs, for I stress; this daily routine will heal and keep your body cells happy.
As I end this blog, Dan and I for several years have shared our experiences with enjoying life while managing cancer. By keeping healthy, our routine daily has been walking (exercise), meditation (for stress), Qigong (exercise and for stress).
I know some will say they do not have enough time with work, kids and household chores!!!
Burr, it feels like winter; time to go to the gym.
Dan and I have put together videos from WALK AT HOME together on our website, that you can follow in home; when you have short periods of time and unable to go out. They are from 15 mins up to 30 mins depending on the miles. This is one of the first steps to making your cells happy!!

Until Monday, I - not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.”
