Living a Life of Happiness
>> 19.11.09
It is easy to get wrapped up in the stresses and busyness of life, focusing on the negative aspects of life instead of choosing to walk a path of happiness. But it is impossible to control world events or even just the few people who make up daily life. Instead, it is better to choose to focus on being happy in spite of what is going on in the world or the actions of others. And it is possible to take it one step further and be kind to others throughout the day.
Focusing on the things that bring happiness to daily living is a worthwhile exercise. It is easy to focus on the negative, especially when there are reminders everywhere. But choosing to seek ways to incorporate happy thoughts can make a tremendous difference in daily living. As the following quotes illustrate, happiness is largely a matter of choice.
"Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them." ~Leo Tolstoy
"Each day comes bearing its own gifts. Untie the ribbons." `Ruth Ann Schabacker
"A good laugh is like sunshine in the house." ~William Makepeace Thackeray
