Happiness

“To become a happy person, have a clean soul, eyes that see romance in the commonplace, a child’s heart, and spiritual simplicity.” Norman Vincent Peale

Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad, is a full minute of happiness you’ll never get back. Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile.   (I don’t know who wrote this!)

“One of the secrets of a happy life is continuous small treats.”  —  Iris Murdoch

“There is one thing one has to have: either a soul that is cheerful by nature, or a soul made cheerful by work, love, art and knowledge.”  – Friedrich Nietzsche

“We have an infinite number of reasons to be happy, and a serious responsibility not to be serious.”  – Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
