I find that I am a much happier person these days because I have learned to enjoy life more. I'm not talking about anything magical or mystical. I'm saying that I have opened my eyes to the world around me. Instead of fixating on the negative aspects of life, politics, religious extremes, and human frailties, I have chosen to take notice of the positive aspects of my life.
I have met people who take joy in living. We exercise, and (gasp) do yoga. We enjoy each other's company. This has taught me to take a close look at the things I most enjoy, good music, good eating, good conversation, affection, and learning new things. I have opened my senses to the fragrances, sounds, and sights of nature.
I believe we were put on this earth to learn certain lessons and to achieve all that we are capable of as human beings. My hope is that I have learned those lesson well.
