08-30 -23 is National Grief Awareness Day

08-30 -23 is National Grief Awareness Day
I was about to include that National Grief Awareness Day & it being the next Happiness Meeting, though while the ideas Happiness & Grief don’t seem to fit in the same image … Happiness Meetings are not about being happy all of the time ,
Happiness Meetings
are about the meaning we find in life regardless of circumstances and … yes … finding more happy is generally the byproduct. It has been for
me anyway .

Previous thread Mtg Link

Suggested Focus
More Questions coming soon
1. What positive things are you allowing right now to create a better narrative ? How’s it working for you?
2. Is there anything’ about your life that you are shortchanging yourself about that you can currently reframe your perception or actions so you can
allow for better results : mentally, physically & spiritually.
3. What does having witnesses other than yourself- do for your life/ your journey ?
4.Create affirmations to support your new reality based way of life

We are all in our very unique places in life …
determining where we are , what we want , and how to proceed .
While we do this independently,
we are all in this together . Won’t you join me in this
Happiness meeting ?

Affirmations & Quotes

Quote: "Emotional discomfort, when accepted, rises, crests and falls in a series of waves. Each wave washes a part of us away and deposits treasures we never imagined. Out goes naivete, in comes wisdom; out goes anger, in comes discernment; out goes despair, in comes kindness. No one would call it easy, but the rhythm of emotional pain that we learn to tolerate is natural, constructive and expansive... The pain leaves you healthier than it found you." ~ Martha Beck
Affirmation:
My present optimistic consciousness and my own happy energy are my greatest success I AM INTUITIVE & TRUST THAT INNER VOICE WHICH COMFORTABLY SUPPORTS ME
True discernment means
not only distinguishing
the right from the wrong;
it means distinguishing
the primary from the secondary,
the essential from the indifferent,
and the permanent from the transient.
And, yes, it means distinguishing between the good and the better, and even between the better and the best.
~ Sinclair B. Ferguson
From
video
Affirmations used though I placed the order :
I approach adversity with a calm sense of courage
I trust the flow of life
I honour my deepest needs
I support the well-being of my mind, body and soul
I replace self-judgment with self-compassion
I am ready to begin a new day
I love myself unconditionally
I trust my body's ability to heal and to repair
I breathe deep to harness inner peace
There is nowhere I need to be but here.
I am not defined by my thoughts
I am committed to a peaceful and joyous life
I let go with ease
My entire being is at ease
I am loved and supported
I surrender into today with ease
I inhale peace and exhale tension
I am learning and growing every day
I choose to think positive thoughts
I am at peace with my mind and body
Today I move through life with confidence
In process
I release emotions that don't serve me
I am grounded and centered
I am confident in who I am
I know when to act and when to rest
I ease my body by quietening my mind
I feel energized yet calm.
My body and mind are in harmony
I am grateful for my life and for each breath
I am in control of my reactions to life
I release emotions that don't serve
I choose the reality I wish to create
"Love always seeks for betterment,
for ways of making life more workable,
joyful,
whole,
and beautiful.
Love examines every option available to bring about an improvement in life.
This kind of discernment is an act of decency,
not an act of judgment.
Rigid philosophies of judgment will seek to establish structure as a substitute for decency, control as a substitute for trust,
and the mind as a substitute for higher awareness."
~ Glenda Green

Stevie Wonder: JOY INSIDE MY TEARS
I've always come to the conclusion that 'but' is the way
Of asking for permission to lay something heavy on ones head
So I have tried to not be the one who 'll fall into that line
But what I feel inside I think you should know
And baby that's you you you
Made life's his-to-ry
'Cause you've brought some joy inside my tears
And you have done what no one thought could be
You've brought some joy inside my tears
I've always felt that tomorrow is for those who are too much afraid
To go past yesterday and start living for today
I feel that lasting moments are coming fr and few between
So I should tell you of the happiness that you bring
Baby, baby it's you you you
Made life's history
Oh baby, you've brought some joy inside my tears
Baby you have done what no one thought could be
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my tears
You've brought some joy inside my tears
Baby, baby you have done what no one thought could be
He why, you brought some joy inside my tears
Gotta tell you
You you you made life's history
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought you brought you brought some joy inside my tears
Baby baby baby you have done what no one thought could be
You brought some joy inside my tears
You made it baby you made it baby made it made life's his-to-ry
You you you made life's his-to-ry
You brought some joy inside my tears
You have done what no one thought could be
Nobody ever thought it would be
You have done what no one thought could be
You you you made life's history
Gotta shout about it baby
You brought some joy inside my tears
You have done what no one thought could be
You brought some joy inside my tears
You you you made life's history
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my tears
You brought some joy inside my, tears

Gentle Empowerment
Thank you for standing up and bringing this topic.
Grief is such a massive, complex subject and we are all touched by it, either directly or indirectly. We have been and are still profoundly impacted by the enormity and the lifetime journey that grief bestows upon us.
We may be frail and even unwilling - in the beginning of our journey, but most likely we will come to an understanding about the many "gifts" that alter our understanding of grief and loss, and how we come into something that we may not recognize - as grief moves and handles us and transforms us and our world so profoundly...
We are touched by each other in many different ways. Some of those ways are positive and you hear people say, "You are one in a million," "You changed my life forever..."
We are all who we are today because of others who have left a lasting impression on us, not just our lives, but on who we are.
The greater the loss, the greater the pain...
Opening up a discussion on grief is like learning to surf in the middle of a tsunami.
I cannot think of a more powerful and a healing place than to have this discussion in a Happiness meeting.
Happiness meetings are a safe place where incredible work, incredible healing can start to be unfolded, uncollapsed and new paths, new perceptions can generate new levels of workability.
It's never too late to heal - or grow in peace and in understanding.
Our growth and understanding is perpetual...
We never stop growing, we never stop processing...
Like mining and excavating for diamonds... and finding not just the raw and uncut splendor, but becoming a part of the path whose entirety then becomes multi generational.
That once raw, uncut splendor applies to all who experience grief and loss.
Our truth and our legacy definitely gets passed down and for some, their legacy and their love lives on in eternity.

Each one of us is Life personalized. We are each Life as a person; therefore, each one of us contains within himself all the intelligence, the power, the faculties and the instruments for the expression of Life… To know that Life became you for a purpose and that you occupy a place no one else in all the world occupies. – Dan Custer (The Miracle of Mind Power)

Thank You
Thank you for pouring so much love, light, faith, hope and inner courage into this amazing thread.
I love and respect all that you have said, done and created.
Your affirmations are powerful, on point and they spark new levels of openness, growth and transformation.
I want to acknowledge you. I want to acknowledge all that you have opened up in this meeting.
This is one very wonderful benefit of your sharing -- it that this teaches me and it teaches other so that our awareness of the work and the numerous challenges of bereavement can be understood.
You are teaching us with your wisdom.
Two of your numerous strong suits are your generous compassion and nonjudgemental listening. Your second strong suit is your inexhaustible commitment to a deep, transformative, immersive reservoir of positivity.
You are courageous and even fierce when it comes to work of self love and self care.
Your determination and all that you stand for has been a source of light and illumination for all in our mindful community.
The unconventional way that some of the most transformative Happiness meetings have worked is completely non-linear. The best way to yield results is to participate in meetings and work on yourself, develop new skills in the domain of self care, self love, acceptance and belonging.
Growth cannot be controlled. Healing cannot be rushed. Many times, in my experience, it seems like there are several layers to loss. Its almost as if you have to deeply release everything - including long standing relationships - in order to start over... and starting over for the 3rd, 4th or 18th time...
Grief is an intensive personal process that requires time and the growth of understanding. Understanding is a byproduct of a personal journey that changes your sense of everything that you thought you knew about yourself without previously needing to identify or define it , but only assumed to understand it or be otherwise safe with the outter shell of its existence.
"Leave no stone unturned." Indeed...
