"We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.
-Frederick Keonig-
A good laugh is sunshine in a house.
~~William Makepeace Thackeray
The grand essentials for happiness are: something to do, something to love and something to hope for.
-Chalmers
Happiness is an attitude.
We either make ourselves miserable,
Or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same.
~~Francesca Reigler
Always remember: Joy is not merely incidental to your spiritual quest. It is vital.
~~Rebbe Nachman of Breslov
May your walls know joy;
May every room hold laughter
And every window open to great possibility.
~~Maryanne Radmacher-Hershey
Joy is the serious business of heaven. "There will more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance."
Jesus Christ has the last word. Not death. Not sin. Not anxiety. Nor fear. The last word is joy.
~~Harriet Crosby
A Place Called Home
In pursuit of happiness, the difficulty lies in knowing when you have caught up.
~~R.H. Grenville
The path to happiness is not found in selfish living and indifference to others. Instead, when we have experienced the mercy of God then we will show mercy to others. Then we will indeed be "twice blest" because we will both make others happy and experience true happiness ourselves.
~~Billy Graham
The Secret of Happiness
It is vital that people "count their blessings" to appreciate what they possess without having to undergo its actual loss.
~~Abraham Maslow
