Looking for freedom in all the wrong places.

Freedom is here.

Happiness is here.

Joy is here.

It’s already here, all of it, before we do or try ANYTHING.

It always has been, and it always will be.

Here, just here.

The only reason we can’t seem to find it, at least not sustainably, is because our minds don’t let us successfully and consciously connect the pieces of the puzzle.

We KNOW that things that seem to bring us pleasure and joy sometimes don’t, so it’s pretty obvious that the things themselves don’t cause our experience.

We KNOW that we are naturally capable of feeling joy, contentment, satisfaction, excitement, and many more amazing feelings, so it’s an inherent talent.

We KNOW that the things we wish for, work for, and long for, will eventually lose their power to make us happy once we have attained them.

We KNOW.

We see it happen every day.

It’s all so bloody obvious.

It’s all there.

And that’s probably why it’s so hard to realize:

It’s almost TOO obvious.
