Why Can't I Find Happiness?

  • Posted: Thursday, May 18, 2023
  • Meeting: Sunday, April 23, 2023

  • Duration: 3min 43sec

Summary

In this answer to a viewer's question, "letting go" author Guy Finley dives deeply into the concepts of "joy and happiness," noting the important distinction between imagined "joy" and the kind of joy that is the natural outcome of life's authentic wholeness. Imagined joy turns into painful resistance to anything that interferes with the image. Seeing this with more and more clarity is freedom from the stressful compulsion to pursue an imagined happiness.
