THE ART OF HAPPINESS
You can't pursue happiness and catch it.
Happiness comes upon you unawares while you are helping others.
Happiness is like perfume you can't spray it on others without getting some on yourself.
Happiness does not depend upon a full pocketbook, but upon a mind full of rich thoughts and a heart full of rich emotions.
Happiness does not depend upon what happens outside of you but n what happens inside of you; it is measured by the spirit in which you meet the problems of life.
Happiness doesn't come from doing what we like to do but from liking what we have to do.
Happiness grows out of harmonious relationships with others, based on attitudes of good will, tolerance, understanding and love.
Happiness is found in little things; a baby's smile, a letter from a friend, the song of a bird, a light in the window.
(From the Art of Living by Wilferd A. Peterson)
