KNOWING THE S-E-C-R-E-T OF LIFE II of II


3 BECOME LOVE.
Leo Buscaglia said: "love is life". And if you miss love, you miss life. The first way to live this secret is by choosing to love our

own selves. Unless we fundamentally choose to see ourselves as worthy, we can not find happiness. For some of us, self love may come

naturally because our upbringing and early experiences gave us a deep sense of our own self worth, but for others, love of the self comes

with difficulty. The second part of this secret is to choose to act with love toward those closest to us and to make loving relationships

a priority in our lives.

4 LIVE the moment.
If life goes by quickly, then one of the secrets to happiness is to get more out of the time we have, to find a way that each moment and

each day become great gifts. At its simplest, live the moment means to be fully in every moment of our lives, and not to judge our lives,

but to live fully. We must not focus on the past or future, but experience each moment with gratitude and purpose. We have to recognize

that we have the power in each moment to choose contentment and happiness.

5 GIVE more than you take.
To live in this secret, here are some of the questions we have to ask ourselves:
- Did I make the world a better place this week in some small ways?
- Was I kind, giving, and generous this week?
- How do I want to live this secret more deeply next week?

Be aware, what you sow is what you reap. The more you give, the more the universe will give you more than what you can think of.
