Happy Again


When devastation comes along we often wonder … “Will I ever be happy again?”

Happiness is the land we all seek. 

Anne Lamont says, “I have seen many people survive unsurvivable losses, and seen them experience happiness again.  How is this possible?”
Help Thanks Wow


Have you faced down death – either your own or that of a loved one?

Anne says “Death will not be the end of the story.”

So where does one begin the walk of daily restoration?
We start in the here and now.  It’s a daily process.  We do the hard thing – we grieve, we process, we mull, we meditate, we seek counseling, and as Anne says “We find God in our human lives, and that includes the suffering.”

You take care of you – and if that means you are thirsty, you get a glass of water, or whatever your immediate needs may be.

Happy Land can come again, if you are willing to do your part.  It’s all about wise choices, and following the recovery steps. 

This is a huge topic.  If you are struggling with this subject, please consult a trusted licensed counselor of your choosing.
