April 10 Willing Butterfly

How does one become a butterfly?
You must want to fly so much that you are willing
to give up being a caterpillar.” ~ Trina Paulus

How does an alcoholic / addict, the person with the bad habit

become a well person? They must be willing to change.

Not only must the addicted change their attitude, they must

also change the people, places and things in their lives.

If it has anything to do with the addiction or the habit, be willing to give it up.

Find a friend, the family, a teacher, a preacher or the book of your choice,

a someone or something that can lead you to the spiritual path.

If you are willing, the change will materialize.

Happiness is being the willing butterfly.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

April 9                A Kind Heart

“A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything
in its vicinity freshen into smiles.” ~ Washington Irving

Think kindness, think love, remember patience and tolerance,

and strive to be the person that the Great Creator,

the Spirit of the Universe, your Higher Power wants you to be.

Today, be the metaphor, allow your heart to gush forth with kindness,

give all who are in your vicinity a smile of warm friendship.

Remember those who have passed from this life and give thanks

for their memories, but live now with a glad heart to build

better memories for those we meet today.

Happiness is having a kind heart that creates smiles.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
