'The universe resides within you. It transcends your individual self, yet the entirety of the universe is contained within you. As you clarify and align with your inner joy, the universe illuminates. Allow that to resonate: As you clarify and tune into your joy, the universe brightens. Within each cell of your being exists the cosmos. The history of our planet is woven into our very essence. The future remains unwritten. As we each discover the splendor of our being, as we touch the light that we are, the universe is filled with greater light, love, and harmonious existence. Trust that your presence here is purposeful. Trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be, learning all you are destined to learn. Within you lies the same greatness that resides in every person on Earth. Feel it, experience it, and celebrate it today. The universe resides within you.'

Thank you for joining me today. It's a truly joyous occasion. I am deeply grateful for the wisdom of teachers, mentors, and the guiding lights who have illuminated my path. March 20th holds a special significance for me.
The nature of happiness is often surprising. I remember conversations with exceptionally successful friends who emphasized that happiness wasn't tied to wealth. Initially, I was skeptical. That's easy to say when you have abundance, I thought. But for those struggling for basic needs, happiness can indeed seem synonymous with financial security. Now, after many years, I've come to understand.
Imagine waking up with a profound sense of joy, of purpose. That feeling might be closer than you think, perhaps just a shift in perspective away.
I believe happiness is a practice, a discipline. Especially in these times of change and uncertainty, cultivating happiness is more vital than ever. As you embody happiness, as you stand for it, as you open to your gifts within it, you amplify its value exponentially.
This is why you're drawn here today. Your presence, your joy, your inner strength, serves as a beacon for those who are struggling.
If you're experiencing loss, remember to express gratitude for what they brought into your life, and then release them to their next journey. In holding on, we may impede their growth. Say, 'I wish you well, may light be with you,' and then return to your own inner happiness.
Know that you are not alone. Angels, guides, and loved ones wish to contribute to the planet's happiness. Celestial energies yearn to infuse this Earth with joy. I'm guided to help navigate the polarities we face. I recall the 2016 election and the divisive posts. I chose not to engage in polarization. Even with differing views, we can honor the divine spark within each person.
Let's recognize our shared humanity, our common experiences of growth, learning, and resilience.
On this Spring Equinox, envision yourself as a farmer, planting seeds for the future. Offer gifts of hope, create beauty, love deeply. Plant a seed that you can nurture through the end of 2025.
I'm holding space for happiness, inviting you to join me. Return to this energy whenever you need. I'm layering this moment with the intention of joy for all who listen. This happiness is my birthright, my purpose.
I'm developing a happiness intensive for April, May, and June. Details will be on HappinessQuotations.com. My book, "Happiness Quotations: Gentle Reminders of Your Preciousness," is also available online.
One of my favorite passages reminds us, 'You are not meant to be miserable.' This is not your destiny. My prayer is that you know and are guided by your light.
Wishing you a joyful International Day of Happiness and Spring Equinox! May your dreams manifest beautifully. Thank you.
