How to free yourself from unhappiness

How to free yourself from unhappiness.

Perhaps this is an impossible situation, for when you are already unhappy how do you find the energy to repower yourself back to happiness?

Perhaps it is better to realise if you are feeling unhappy maybe you are giving away your power to what ever is making you unhappy. Realise that this is as much a mistake as trying to find something to make you happy.

Happiness is really all about acceptance. Accept yourself as you are right now, and realise you are the best and the greatest you have ever been right now and this point right now is always the only ever starting point to the rest of your journey, so just decide to be happy now. Start the rest of your life empowered by the thought that nothing has to change for you to be happy. Just decide to laugh at yourself now and be happy. Happiness is really about accepting your own decision to decide to be happy now.

So don't give away your power by being unhappy!

This seems unusual though. Is being unhappy really giving away my power, you might ask?

Power is a function of the amount you love and if you use it this way you will be happy. Unhappiness comes from lacking love of yourself and your life. It's true you won't have much power then, as enthusiasm comes from happiness. The power of love is different from the love of power. A mean unhappy person can wield evil power as he thinks it will make him happy. The power he wields is not the power of love and does not lead to a good happy life but to one of a despot.

Love the power of love, not the love of power. Love, and power comes with it. Power and the love of power drives love out and with it your happiness.

So to be powerfully happy be powerfully loving to yourself, to others and to all life. Be thankful for life, for with gratitude comes a feeling of happiness.

Yes, power is really a function of love. If we have self love we have power, but the love is not only just in us. The love is a measure of the power of the whole universe and therefore there are times when self power will help and other times when you can allow God's love to power you and to move you past a blockage. So balance is the point here, you have some internal power but only because it comes from a connection to the source of all power, which is love, and which is God. In yourself the power is only sufficient to last you a few days as it is only life force and to live a full life you need to realise life comes from God and from
