HAPPINESS IS AT OUR FINGERTIPS, WHICH IS ATTACHED TO OUR REACHING HANDS,

You can't purse happiness and catch it. Happiness comes upon you unawares while you are helping others. This philosophy has been expressed in the quote, "Help thy brother's boat across, and lo! thine own has reached the shore. " Happiness does not depend upon a full pocketbook, but upon a mind full of rich emotions. Happiness does not depend upon what happens outside of you but on what happens inside of you; it is measured by the spirit in which you meet problems of life.

Happiness is a state of mind. Lincoln once said: "We are as happy as we make our minds up to be." Happiness does not come from doing easy work but from the after-glow of satisfaction
that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demanded our best. 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.

The master secret of happiness is to meet the challenge of each new day with the serene
faith that: "All things work together for the good to them that love God."
