I am a real firm believer that happiness begins inside and that when we cultivate our inner landscape, more joy can grow. In fact what is happening to us externally is often a reflection of what is happening within. Which seeds are you planting at the moment?

Contentment

Contentment always starts within

No one can give it to us

It’s feeling good in our own skin

Accepting what comes through us

Contentment doesn’t look for ‘likes’

Or seek its worth in others

It evens out the dips and spikes

A much more faithful lover

It doesn’t seek to be the best

It knows it counts, it’s stable

Must not outdo must not impress

Contentment’s calm and able

Enoughness’ where it all begins

For what will be, we’re clueless

Contentment always starts within

Accepting what comes through us
