NRM Happiness Is

[@hbrealhousewife2270]

Hi Tim. I was proud of myself last weekend for saying no to going to a charity event that would involve spending on drinks, raffles, loud music and a late night. I made a donation and had a lovely evening at home over the fire with a cup of coffee and crappy tv. Bliss. 😊 I am grateful for living where I do, a long happy marriage and my health being reasonable. Thanks for the thought provoking vid. 👍

[@Good-DaySunshine]

Your beautiful dog looks like a sweetheart! If you want more channel choices for TV, purchase a ROKU unit at most big box retailers or their website. Cut the cord (and cost) to cable, and enjoy the type of programming of your choice with ROKU. You will even have access to follow your favorite channel, (The) NRM. 🥰

Thoughtful being. Walk out my kitchen door, into the southern sunshine. Coffee in hand, comfortable chair, exhale, focus on the warmth and light. Then begin that long list of special people and things I love. The longer I live, the longer my list gets.

Thank you Tim. I agree. After giving away the last of the garage bulk items, our home is so peaceful. My daughter and I are at peace. We love the quiet and a safe haven to rest and rejuvenate, and just be. I don’t know how much longer we will live in the same home, but I’m grateful for this leg of the journey to declutter and let go of so much. We are disconnecting from the rat race and feel so free living a much simpler life, enjoying what we have. With the carefully chosen things we have left we will enjoy each moment. If I want to go out and browse through a store I just pretend I’m in a museum enjoying the beauty. Otherwise, nature is a haven of peace.

I live cozy. Not a lot of stuff but a nice small ranch style home cozy inside and out. Am in my early 70s and what I've noticed after all my yrs of living; life never slows even when the electronics promised to make life easier when predicted yrs ago. I'm not a minimalist but an essentialist. Do I need the hustle and bustle which is 'created' but not naturally occurring ? The answer is no. How much is made up and how much is really necessary/essential ? At my age I now know the answer. I live cozy.

So true, when you put boundaries in your life, many people with be offended and perhaps choose not to be in your life anymore. At the beginning, it may appears to be great lost but it is the opposite, you are making room for the people that are ready and willing to love and appreciate you just the way you are right now. No improvement required. Yes, embrace the moment. With gratitude.🙏

I had to wait till near-midlife to meet my now husband. He is in his 11/12th year of Parkinsons, on an accellerating slope into losing all that our human experience takes for granted. In a surreal moment in time, I also went from one reality into another that noone is able to counsel me regarding... Happiness is very real to me. I began to realize that, inspite of entering what I now refer to as my "Pixar" zone, I am so aware of a protection zone that amazes me. I am also continually reminding my husband that who he is, is sufficient for me: I am profoundly content and happy simply having his presence near me. Happiness is knowing you don't really deserve ANYTHING, and yet there is so very much we receive inspite of that fact. Loved this again, Norm😂NRM. Yes, Tim, speaking from your heart really does reach out and hug those who stop by to share the touch-point of a meaning-filled thought.❤

T, in my 20' and 30's I didn't have the luxury of vacays and nice things. I was lucky if I had the basic necessities but I wouldn't change any of it, because escaping a toxic situation with my tiny TWINS hand in hand gave us the best "PEACE OF MIND" we needed. I purchased my 1st VERY OLD CAR at 40 years old and it took on many road trips. Going through all those rough times made me realize how little I really need to be content with what I NOT OTHERS have.

Thanks for your wise words and intelligent videos. I have a few years left to retirement and have begun to think of how I would like my life to be. Learning to say no is difficult, but it gets easier with age and practice. A close friend told me years ago that “No” is a complete sentence and I try to keep that in mind. It’s so easy to feel like a no has to be followed by an explanation of why you say no, but no explanation is necessary really.

I really enjoy listening to a man instead of a woman talk about “stuff” such as gratitude, declutterring the mind and basically everything….You should be really proud of yourself for being gutsy enough to put yourself online and talk about all the things you do. I agree with you on medication being “non-religious”. I have met so many who won’t consider mediation as they are “religious” and it would be against their religion. They are so wrong. It is, as you say, cleaning the mind….that it is…and as you say, you can make it “religious” if you wish. I think the ‘Hail Mary” really is a form a mediation. I have three brothers, and am the only girl in the family - age 58. Somehow, being raised with brothers, I think makes you more relatable to me than many of the women online. By the way, your cinematography with the lighting from the side is so “Alfred Hitchcock” and makes you look much better I think than straight on lighting. Keep up the good work. I look forward to listening to your low key chats.

So true...great wisdom...I am 70 years old and am very thankful for what I have. My parents both worked, dad had two jobs and they never had enough, never appreciated anything, hated each other and divorced, had a huge sale and ran off with multiple other partners. They are finally dead now. I can still hear the echoing of the fighting. Then they would fuck the daylights out of each other. I was so glad when I finally left home. They were both mentally ill. They had to have been. I do not plan on seeing them in heaven. God be with me and keep me until the end of my days. Evil abounds. Stay focused on JESUS. Thank you, again.

great message! Sometimes it is scary how alike we think...you got me a couple of weeks ago and then again today. I too love the sunrise and it just warms me and gives me calm...I make it a practice, every single morning when I waken (run and pee if must do but come back to bed), to stop and to say thanks for waking up, and to express gratitude for the things that make me happy. I have lost many friends since 60 who I know would love to still be around and it has sharpened for me the fact that you must be grateful every day and assume this one may be your last, therefore making the most for EVERY day. In my career I was always a rather driven type A in corporate sale management and loved winning...not just for the money or the trips but just for my own personal happitude. I have changed a lot in my 60's...mostly had to as I became a caretaker for my Mom after she had 5 strokes, while walking on a terminal hip from a skiing accident but couldn't get it fixed with Mom's condition, and then throw in a relationship ending and having to sell my house earlier than I wanted or lose out on a chance for an HOA situation that I knew I would enjoy later...all the while still teaching. Anyway, I had a bad 8 years. Now that all that has fallen away and the new hip is great, poor Mom is gone, retired from job, in the easier-living townhome, relationship is smoothed and we've remained friends....now I can settle back each morning, thank the Lord for my bounty (not rich by any means but "enough") and that I am still here! I can cuddle y cat and dog and do whatever I feel like eat whatever, but if lonely hit social media or meet someone for lunch or a movie. My Crohns disease is a pain in the arse (literally) but hey, it could be cancer, or whatever.....but yes...I agree we must keep gratitude in the foreground I ill try the 3x a day writing down 3 things...sound good, even if I only do it a few days...hugs to you.

Well said.

Thank you for such a thoughtful video. Hopefully it will inspire us to rethink of what we have in our lives, especially the love for family and God’s gift of something as perfect as a sunset, which I love.

I love your thoughtfulness. I’m currently reading, “The Practice of the Presence of God”, by Brother Lawrence. It’s about recalling God’s presence throughout every moment of your day. Not an easy thing to do in our current culture.
