Happy Every Now and Then



The Rabbits Nose

FOX: "Just over a year ago I had everything I wanted. I had a good high paying job, I had the girl of my dreams, I had my health, and I was in a very happy place with everything(or so i thought)."

RABBIT: Time is a very strange thing, in one moments we see a beautiful picture and the next time we look it appears ugly.  Success would be only a reflection of making each moment as close to the original moment of perfection we have perceived in experience.  

Your picture one year ago was one of happiness, health and abundance.  If I could assume, you were at what you believed to be as close to a perfect moment as you could. That moment, or picture was a very real existence.  It was something you could hear, touch and feel and therefore you have a distinct impression in your mind of what it looked like.  If you really tried I bet you could describe tastes, smells, sounds, emotions so clearly that I could see a very accurate picture of where you were one year ago.



  

I further wager that you are at least 20 times the age of the time it took to go from picture A.) You perfect moment to picture B.) Your current moment.  I assume, from your letter, you are in your late twenties, if so, then it took 29 years to reach your moment of perfection and about 1 to reach your moment of NOW.  The moment you experienced one year ago was created from about 29 years of experience.  You reached that very moment by observing your current moments, seeing the places you could perfect them and doing so.  So the moment of near perfection, last year, is a collective picture of 29 years of life.  

Since you have already created this picture you already know how you did it.  Your experiences are the very tool to recreate it.  What is even better is that the last 12 months served to teach you well.  You were shown the exact opposite of your version of perfection which will allow you to not only contrast your wants and desires with greater light, but do it with the speed of your years of experience. 

I will tackle the second paragraph of your letter later.  I look forward to helping you help yourself.
