BahaiTeachings.org Presents... “Life was meant for happiness and not sorrow, for pleasure and not grief,” says Baha'i health care professional and author Deborah Walters. She sees patients who tell terribly unhappy stories and have enormous suffering—and asks them “What’s at the center of your life? Where do you spend your time, your money, your love?” Life is created for happiness, Walters says. We need to put something eternal, something light-filled, at the center of our lives—which will change your whole entire perspective. “Human happiness is founded on spiritual behavior,” the teachings of the Baha'i Faith say. Our existence is fundamentally mystical in nature—there is light within us.

![Africa: Why a Group of Black Baha’is Went to the Ancestral Homeland
For “a person of African descent from this country, visiting the homelands of their ancestors [is] a very moving experience,” says Billy Roberts, a #Bahai living in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Billy shares how meaningful and powerful this experience was in an interview with “The Race Unity Project,” a video project that shares “the century-long story of the American Baha’i community and its efforts — as well as its tests and challenges — in promoting race unity.”
