Open Yourself To The Sun

You know how south-facing windows are so sought after when looking for a house or apartment? They are sought after because windows facing the south receive more sunlight. The cheering rays of the sun provide plenty of light, warmth, and healthy vibrations.

Now, if this "southern exposure" is good in a room, isn’t it good in a person? Have you ever met someone who faces the sun? The one who brings vibrations of inspiration and warmth, making frowns disappear from the faces of those in their presence. The one whose memory of their presence cheered you. They bring light into our lives, emanating joy everywhere they go.

Southern exposure is as good a thing in a person as in a room—the person who faces the sun lives one day at a time, does the best they know how, and is kind—finding joy and sharing it with others—simple, loving, friendly.

They are sunny, bringing life, energy, and strength to all those that come in contact with them. They carry positive, bright, cheerful, happy thoughts that stimulate, inspire, and encourage. They radiate sunshine and cheer in all directions. They are the direct opposite of the cold, unhappy, negative people that we encounter every day.

Be like the man or woman who faces the sun. Be an optimist. Look at the bright side of things. Embrace all of life. Soak it in with all your energy. Live fully. Extract fun from the most unpromising conditions and things. Go on your way with a smile.

Love all living beings and let those beings know it. Carry a message of hope, courage, and friendliness to mankind. Do not seek friends or love; let them come to you. Attract them with your being. People will be glad to see you come and sorry to see you go.

Be open. Be tolerant. Be merciful. Be forgiving. Be free of hate, envy, malice. Free from fear and worry. Mind your own business and grant the same privilege to everyone around. Be full of love, and radiate it to the world. Meet despair and misery cheerfully. Go through the rocky roads of life with a positive attitude. Cultivate peace from within.

It doesn’t matter in what situation you may be placed, or what small portion of material possessions you may have, or what your surroundings may be; make the best of everything. Catch the rays of the sun and rejoice.

Be as much at home in the humblest of circumstances as in the wealthiest of mansions. Be a brother or sister to both saints and sinners. Love them both equally. You know each is doing the best they can. Do not condemn. Do not judge. The sun shines for both alike.

Work, and work well. And find joy in your work. Find pleasure even in the humblest tasks. Do not hurry; do not rush. You have plenty of time. Be present and bask in the eternal NOW. Believe in infinite justice and ultimate good.

Live one day at a time. Do the best you know how. Open yourself to the sun. Be simple. Be kind. Be friendly. And fill the world with the delicious fragrance of love.
