InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

November 29-30-Dec. 1, 2024


The focus for today (and the weekend) is:

Love and Inner Peace are the two things
that bring lasting joy and happiness.

Today's inspiration was written by Marie T. Russell:

Constantly craving for something we don't have, or believing that something we don't have is the key to our happiness is a delusion that leads to unhappiness.

Love and Inner Peace are the two things that will bring us lasting joy and happiness. The new gadget or the new shoes will soon no longer be new, even the new relationship will no longer have the "honeymoon" glow. What remains is the inner core of who you are: Love, Joy, and Peace.

And Love and Peace are never for sale on Black Friday or on any other day. They are always free and available in abundance starting within our own heart and from the heart of Love itself.
