Seeds of Happiness

One of my colleagues posted the following quote on facebook the other night:

“You have both seeds of happiness and unhappiness in you, planted by your parents, your ancestors, or your friends.  When seeds of happiness manifest themselves, you feel quite happy. But when seeds of sorrow, anger, and hatred manifest, you feel very unhappy. The quality of our life depends on what seeds we water in our consciousness…”Every time we walk with calm and ease, or we smile and release the tension in us, we are planting seeds that will strengthen our happiness. With each happy step, we plant a happy seed."
- Thich Nhat Hanh -


I'm so grateful for my sweet little girl, who reminds me to slow down, smile, and laugh....to be a seed of happiness.
