Gifts of Happiness


© Victoria Tallman Freudiger

Something brand new is sweeping our nations. When something new appears, it is certain that old things will pass away. In this case, the nation and its inhabitants can celebrate, as it is "Gifts of Happiness" that is happening all over. Therefore, it is unhappiness that is little-by-little leaving us.

My belief is that this change in our living environments will surely weave its way into the lives of people who are chronically ill. Even hypochondriacs will find themselves less focused on their aches and pains if just a small portion of happiness can sneak its way into their consciousness.

Years after a forest fire sweeps away trees and brush new, plus green sprouts of life, will appear. Before long, the sprout will become a full-grown tree or a lush thriving bush. This process of new birth is very natural. Happening today in the way that human beings react to each other is just such a process.

September 11 and Tsunami came and swept through our nations. Left behind was a mankind who cared more than ever about one another. Instead of lying down and feeling lost and defeated, people everywhere are standing tall on their feet and they feel as though they can conquer devastation.

Charities are filtering gifts of happiness as never before. Gifts of hope and faith are shared between the people of the United States and countries worldwide. Many of the people who have been the victims of these two catastrophes have made up their minds to focus on rebuilding their lives. Instead of moaning and groaning and instead of kicking and screaming, we ask you to be strong so that others can see your strength. They too, will be strong from seeing your reaction. This domino effect will infect the nation with a goodness that nothing will be able to stop.

Sometimes things in life can go horribly wrong. Yet, if we are able to remain strong within ourselves, we will become happier than ever before.

In the past few months, more than once, I have seen marketing campaigns giving products away for free; rather than charging overrated prices. We, at RoseMeade's Wellness Nook, want to join in this "Gifts of Happiness" surge. To do this, we believe will allow us to become an integral part of healing the societies of today.

Through the loving and caring of others, you too will receive love and care. A natural process similar to the creation of a new forest will grow. If you want to be healed, we suggest that one of the first things that you do is to share an act of kindness with another human being. If you want others to listen to you speak of your woes, instead -- take some time out of your day to stay quiet and listen to them. Consequently, your mind will be busy. You will likely not be able to focus on your own health during those moments. Gifts of Happiness will blossom.

Rose,

What a great idea. I would love one of the books. How do I go about claiming it? When I've read it, I will pass it along to them, asking them to give it to someone else after they're through. ...
