“ i envision a day when people see beyond differences - to the core of what we all have in common, where what we value most allows all humankind to live peacefully, respecting one another.”

The happiness that moves you to follow your dream is pale in comparison to your happiness when your dream comes true.
Small, consistent changes you can continue are vital for your happiness.
Children aren`t happy without something to ignore, and that`s what parents were created for.
The secret of happiness is something to do.
Do not undervalue the place of discomfort in your life.
Winners in life enjoy and treasure, equally, the comfort of renewing and the discomfort of doing -- knowing a mixture of both is required for lasting happiness.
Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the
hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing.
Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give
anyone else responsibility for the way you feel—and then, you'll love them all.
Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as
your excuse to not feel good.
The template for happiness is to offer goodness to the world for true happiness is achieved when one gives freely of their heart and soul.
"Happiness or sorrow- whatever befalls you, walk on untouched, unattached."
The cynicism you have is not your real soul.
The most fundamental law of tragedy is that the moments of greatest happiness are the hardest to attain.
The world is warfare between Man and God. God has made Man His absolute and eternal slave to quench His ultimate vanity, and Man has waged a war on God to seek a quick and complete freedom from the ultimate slavery. The war will never be won, nor will it ever be lost.
God is cunning and cruel, but not wicked. God does not see his own welfare in the welfare of Man, but Man is fortunate in that the welfare of God mostly encompasses the welfare of Man.
Truth is to be found in ugliness as well as beauty, in feeling as well as thought, and in sadness as well as happiness. (Vienna Art Exhibition)
It is profoundly tragic that I am a slave, but it is profoundly joyous that I am God's slave, not that of a devil.
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
"Happiness is stepping outside the realm of reality...envisioning what pleases the senses...&/or altering a perception of life that best comforts the mind, body, and soul."
One's laughter maybe another's tears.
One's laughter maybe another's tears.
True happiness is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
Happiness is not in the having or being- it is in the doing.
Heaven on earth is a choice you must make, not a place you must find.
Bear in mind that everything that traditionally passed as "religion" would modernly be interpreted as a form of sadism or masochism, i.e. humans deliberately spoiling their own and others' this-worldly happiness by taking a more cosmic or eternalist perspective on things; and the same holds true with the illusion- and delusion-bursting iconoclastics of philosophy, education, culture, etc. Insofar as no kind of higher culture takes root and grows except by rupturing the lower "certainties" (dogmatics, faith, visceral tribalisms, etc.) that necessarily militate against such insights, all spirituality and rationality seem like forms of self-immiseration to idiotes.
Before it's too late, appreciate the person in front of you and then you'll realize that happiness is just beside you all along.
"Plenty of people miss their share of happiness,
not because they never found it,
but because they didn't stop to enjoy it."
To me it seems pretty obvious that it would be simple to build a business around helping people achieve autonomy, a feeling of competence and relatedness. In fact, every web company that has been successful thusfar has their business build solidly on one or all of these. And I believe that as people discover that these things are within their reach, they will gravitate more and more towards companies that offer tools to helping them achieve happiness.
We are gardeners of spirit , if we plant and nurture happiness we will create a heaven on earth where all may walk in peace and beauty.
When we embrace the gifts within our soul we create a blissful state of happiness to be savoured , pondered and cherished.
Find abundance within yourself and you are rich -- be happy from within yourself and you will be a light for others and the Universe is yours.
Happiness is living without expectations.
