There are overlapping dimensions. What our physical eyes can see is not what it is to all. However, many of us live in a one dimensional world, it is also called the material world. Many of us feel empty because of the lack of material objects ( the latest iphone, laptops, cars etc). There are infinite wants but limited resources. As a result, many of us want more material objects to fill this &#8220;emptiness&#8221; in our lives. So, we always feel that we are in a state of poverty.<\/p>\n<p>However, life is not about just having material possessions. It is also about spirtual well being, in fact, being spiritually fulfilled is more important then being materially fulfilled. To attain spiritual well being, we have to understand our life&#8217;s purpose, our past lives and our vision for the future. Then again, most people do not realise the key to happiness is what lies within their hearts. Our heart will tell us what is best for us. Many people choose to ignore and surpress their feelings to conform to expectations.<\/p>\n<p>By understanding ourselves, we learn to accept ourselves. By accepting yourself for who you are, you wil be able love yourself. Only by loving yourself you can then share the love with the people around you to make them happy.<\/p>\n<p>This is the key to happiness which we all know but hide inside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world is not one dimensional.
