Another week draws to a close. I have been at work now for two full weeks after an amazing vacation – and guess what? I survived! LOL.

So winter is starting to set in.. the mornings are darker and the sun hides herself away much earlier. The ski resorts are starting to get ready for their season.
“Somewhere beneath the surface of our wants and needs lies a deeper longing - a yearning that connects us to who and what we are in our essential being”
I am so happy at the moment. As my life progresses forward and I see my goals unfold and start reaching accomplishment, I have come to realize that success, love, happiness is not just in reaching something that you want in the future – the absence of it, the process of getting to it – therein lies life’s ultimate challenge.

Happiness is now. This moment.

I often ask people: “Are you happy” – it seems like a very difficult question for people to answer. The answers I often get are: “I am content”, “I am getting there”, “for what it is right now, I am”. And all those answers are ok – it tells me that people want more. Not simply in a dissatisfactory way – but in a “my soul craves greater things” way.
But even so – happiness is now. Here. This moment. It is the only reality you know. The present.

So I start another relaxing weekend, I have a few things planned, nothing hectic. I just plan to exercise, get some good fresh air, take in a movie and maybe some sleep.. sounds good doesnt it?? :)
