Crina Andrei - Happiness Incarnated, Zen Fairy

Crina Andrei - Happiness Incarnated,  Zen Fairy 

Crina Andrei is a wonderful person. You do not have to believe me; you can visit her profile and see for yourself. Besides, out of the few likes we get around here, she is the generous one who provided 20% of them, so there’s empathy and interest to be highlighted. By the way, it seems strange for a “happiness group” to be so stingy with expressions of positive (or even negative) emotions, feelings…I wish you would express more of what can be done to get you more involved…perhaps Crina would help (especially after this post?)

I am not sure about her current profile photo, because she changes them quite a lot. She can do it since she has enough positive material to last for more than a lifetime. But if you look at the photos you can see quite often an ECSTATIC person- the very picture of Happiness.

One photo especially made me share her enthusiasm, albeit with some seconds of perplexity for such a Boddhicitta state (Bodhicitta is the mind set on the way to awakening)...how can she do it, you wonder.

And it was one of her jumping.

There is a positive emotion that Crina seems to transmit, a good karma that, again, you may detect in her photos. In fact, the proof that others “get this” is the hundreds of likes most of her photos get.

When young, a person may just revel in this wave of immense sympathy and relax. She doesn’t seem to do that. Crina is also one of the few visitors to our “happiness blogs”. (In other words, I am just flabbergasted that someone paid attention to these efforts. Well, perhaps).

But it is commendable to have such an extraordinary interest in apparently obscure sites (we do not get that much traffic, go ahead and click), to be open to science and going to clubs, to enjoy reading and Fratelli, to come at World Class for fitness and share in the pleasure of someone’s wedding (I am sorry, I did not follow all the happy pictures, I am not sure who got married, I do not think it was Crina though)

She seems to have it all, to have reached the top of the world.

If only she could share the Secret and then we could use less the research, studies from The States or wherever and take it “straight from the horse’s mouth”.  I strongly recommend you take whatever Crina is suggesting: dancing classes, if not for the dancing itself, for the eventuality that this Happiness, Zen state might rub off on you.

Positive psychology has studied the happiest people to find their secrets, what do they do and don’t…we can now see the rara avis herself.

In the same spirit of Gratitude, a Happiness Activity that we try to promote around here- I, and other members of this group and of World Class- thank you Crina for the chance to look at Happiness Personified, once in a while.
