Happiness is a creation of ones perception, it can be very small or enormous in size, depending on our thoughts. It can be found in the darkest of times, when all seems hopeless, or in a small ray of light coming through the window pain. The journey to happiness begins with a single thought, for one will never be happier than they expect to be. If you are unhappy, change your expectations.
True happiness is not attained through self-gratification, rather through fidelity to a worthy cause.
Anyone can create happiness by learning to enjoy the simple things in life: laugh out loud, compliment others, cherish memories, follow your heart, sing in the rain, embrace opportunities, create kindness, believe in miracles, smile, hum a melody, smell the fresh air, share, listen to the birds, walk in the park, help others, wave to a neighbor, hold open a door...the possibilities are endless, but remember, happiness is a choice in life and not a chance or accident. It's practiced, it's planned and it's entirely intentional!
Happiness allows one to profit from their highest thoughts, wisdom, emotions, common sense and intelligence. It is the soul purpose and aim of human life, and it come readily when we appreciate what we presently have and not when we are in want. Happiness increases when its given to others and consequently, it doesn’t come from materialism, it comes from doing and sharing.
The greatest part of happiness isn't in the circumstances, its in the attitude, because happiness is not a yearning destination, but the way we perceive the journey. It is created when we think through our heart and not through our mind and it begins to develop when we plan for the best possible outcome. "Happiness is the simple harmony between what we are and what we are to become." ( I dedicate this to my daughter, Christa, who exemplifies the word happiness in all that she does.)
