My happiness

Yesterday I was happy because I faithfully followed my own star.

Today I am happy because I bravely live my own life.

Tomorrow I shall be happy because I shall unconditionally listen to and fulfil my Beloved Supreme.

From now on I will have no happiness unless I champion the right to be entirely and constantly God's, God's alone.

Here is the secret of my happiness: I keep the mouth of my little self closed and the heart of my big Self open.

O strength of mine, you have made me happy by saying that I have the capacity to move forward to the farthest destination. O weakness of mine, you have made me happy by saying that I have the opportunity to improve and become the most perfect instrument of my Beloved Supreme.

I am happy, genuinely happy, not because God is mine but because I am God's and God's alone.
