happiness

"The sense of unhappiness is so much easier to convey than that of happiness. In misery we seem aware of our own existence, even though it may be in the form of a monstrous egotism: this pain of mine is individual, this nerve that winces belongs to me and to no other. But happiness annihilates us: we lose our identity."

"And I don't believe in such a thing as "happily ever after". There's only happily every now and then. I find the hardest trick is to recognize the now-and-thens, and to bask in them when they come. Happiness is a choice we make, like how to wear our hair, or having coffee with breakfast and tea at night."

"Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers."

"The advance of regret can be so gradual that it is impossible to say "yesterday I was happy, today I am not."

"Sky is not a limit for me; because I have no limit for myself in life. Because life is a world full of risk taking and possibilities. No matter how hard or easy life is; I will always find a way to enjoy myself; even in the mist of circumstances; because problems is a sense of adventure in sheep's clothing."

"No man is happy who does not think himself so."

"Here, also, the future was cried aloud by the wind through the rocks, so that all those who heard would shiver, and then the liquid spring song of the thrush would make all the beauty of moonlight and sunlight blend together, making it true, so true, that happiness must come again"

"At any given moment the choice to be happy is present- we just have to choose to be happy."

"Who’s happy? Happy is just what people think they are when they can’t find anything to bitch about."

"No one can grant you happiness. Happiness is a choice we all have the power to make."

"I'd far rather be happy than right any day."

"Do not think that one has to be sad in order to be militant, even though the thing one is fighting is abominable."

"I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve."

"The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time."

"Free yourself from the complexities of your life! A life of simplicity and happiness awaits you."

"If you stay in the company of anger, pain, or hurt, happiness will find someone else to visit. Make the choice to view all of your past relationships as a gift. Throw out what hasn’t worked in the past and incorporate new concepts. Focus on being happy ."
