If Only . . .
What would it take to make you happy? Do you ever think about that? Most people do. Most people have a mental list of things they'd need to be happy. It's a mental wish list. I call it the "if only" list . . . If only I could get more time to myself I'd be happy. If only I had a promotion at work with a nice raise and an office with a window--then I'd be happy! If only I had a bigger house in a nice neighborhood, then I'd be happy. Or maybe it's just one big thing. One big achievement that you believe is the key to everything. But the truth of the matter is, there isn't one thing on this earth that will make you happy. There is not one thing or a hundred things on this earth that will make you content. There is nothing on this planet that will give you the peace you're looking for. Because that's not where peace and happiness come from.
