That's A VERY GOOD one and I AGREE with it!!! We have to be able to count our blessings, even the smallest ones instead of comparing ourselves and our lives and achievements with others. :-))))

You know that is true. People who want everything and who don't know what they have, will never find Happiness. Because they are not contented. God will not give you things that are not needed, he will only give what is best for your life, to make you learned from it and appreciate it. I believe in that, so i just stick to what i have. If he permitted me to have what i want i think that is because he think i will be needing it for my life to be improved.

Raydene, that quote is so true. I think happiness is received when you pursue it.
When you are negative about something, it becomes a dirty word that festers inside and it needs to be gone. To do that, you have to sit back and smell the roses and tell yourself that you have yourself to appreciate and you need to make yourself happy. No one else can do that for you except for you and you have to appreciate all the things that made you happy. For example, my videogames make me happy and I appreciate what I have with them. So does family. So does my best friends, such as you, loving, beautiful people that always think about my safety and well-being. I also appreciate the things I love to do and what I can do to make life more enjoyable. To do that, its all about pursuing it to the best of your ability - happiness - and appreciate it every second of the day.
I love that quote, R. It means a lot to me too! Thank you for being such a darling and sharing it with us!
