Beloved Community, 
Speaking of happiness…
What percentage of your life do you feel really identified with happiness? Contentment? Easeful delight, gratitude, a clear and positive heart? Are you satisfied with your current level and general condition of happiness? If so, how do you celebrate and maintain it? If not, do you want to strengthen, amplify, increase, and expand it? If so, how are you going about that in practical, effective, consistent ways? 
Does prayer, music, and dance help?
