When you no longer need it, then you can have it. Why is this still a paradox to us?
People go on every day chasing happiness, success, love, money, peace, Mr. charming, Miss perfect and so on. And the funny thing is that we have only been getting the shadows of what we are looking for.
What and who we are is determined largely by what and how we think. The book of Proverbs 23:7 says, “As a person thinks within himself, so he is.” When you chase money, love, and what ever you need in life, you create the thought of lack within you. “I don’t have enough money so i will look for more, I don’t have love so i have to find, I want a better relationship, I wish i was born in better family!” the list is too long.
It is when you no longer feel the need for money or love that it will come. The feeling of need for something comes from the thought that you don’t have enough, and so you continue to create not having enough of what you want in life.
Day in and day out; we are always creating moments of joy, sadness, jealousy, happiness. We have the choice to choose! And when it comes to money or love, you are either creating the lack of it or the abundance of it. Which one are you creating?
In one of his books, Henry David Thoreau says; “Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.” This is very true.
