| The lovely Ilkley Friends Meeting House where weekly meditation classes are held... |
Tonight I went to a meditation class in Ilkley. Every week they teach how to meditate based on a different area or subject. The theme tonight was "Letting Go". The gist is that if you can let go of all the beliefs you have of what can make you happy, then you can focus on your internal happiness - which is the only real way to be happy. For example, if money made people happy then rich people would all be super happy (which we know they're not - see Gordon Ramsey), or if being beautiful made us happy then super models would be super happy super models (which they're not - see Naomi Campbell). So, if one is happy inside, it doesn't really matter what we have around us, we will be happy with what we've got.
All I could think during my meditation was how happy I'd be if I was a rich supermodel married to Gordon Ramsey...
