Happiness is Waking Up

There have been moments in my life where I felt like I was waking up from a long sleep. That which I’d thought was real was not. And that which I had dreamed—well, that was the real stuff.

Right now, I am waking up again to a whole new level of living. I am in a new area and surrounded by newness everywhere I go, everywhere I look. It’s like I clapped my hands and said, “Wake up.” Life is so much bigger than I thought, and with each step forward, I discover more magic.

The old realities are gone. Mostly. There’s the ping of them every once in a while. They usually come from old relationships, ones that haven’t completely awoken to the new reality I’m inhabiting.

Happiness is waking up.

Sleepwalking through life is no longer allowed. No more perpetual somnambulation. Life is about being awake, being alive. It’s time to see the brilliant threads of sunlight as they cascade through the trees. Listen to the birds chirp in the air. Observe the people around us and listen to what they are telling us. Are they awake? Are they asleep? I always can tell.

Right now there’s a collective call to wake up. It’s the call to authenticity, to living your true self, to embodying your soul purpose.

It’s time to wake up. Are you ready?
