If you focus attention on the external world, and link your sense of happiness to that, you also set yourself up for potential disappointment. For instance, if you tell yourself you will be happy when your conditions change, or when you obtain something that you are convinced you do not yet have, then you are distracting yourself from the happiness of being here in this moment. Allow yourself to see through the lens of love, and love is all you see. That is, expectations, judgments or other distractions no longer come into your scope. From the moment you are open and receptive to the flow of life, and stop analyzing, only happiness exists.
