Be Happy

Being happy is a choice. We all want to be satisfied, but we think that happiness comes to us through someone else or purchases we made or making money. Happiness has to come from within and not chase elusive rainbows.

Happiness is subjective. What makes one person happy may make another upset or sad. Most people long for life’s essentials such as good health, partner and children, healthy relationships, shelter, food, purposeful work, peace of mind, joy, and happiness. Without these essentials, there is an upset in life balance. I find that being mindful is key to much of our happiness. If you are aware of your health, you probably want to take care of your health by eating a proper diet and exercising regularly. If you long for healthy relationships, you want the people in your life to matter to you and you to them.Ā
