First of all, being happy is a choice!!! We always have a choice, remember that..^_^ Just try what I've just type. Also try to appreciate the smallest things and focus on the happy things... What ever happened you will be happy...and of course don't forget to smile...^_^ So what do you think we should do to be happy?

Yes, i believe on that. That being happy is a choice. If you choose to be happy then you will be. Even if you have many problems and trials. Still, you can be happy in the midst of it.

There`s a song that goes like this "PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE BROTHER JOHN,WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE, AND THE WORLD`S A HAPPY PLACE....." My Guru, Paramahansa Yogananda,author of the best-seller,Autobiography of a Yogi, has said "Be a smile Millionaire".When we keep smiling in all circumstance ,good or bad, we send out positive vibrations and we become human magnets and attract people to ourselves.No one likes a frowning,unhappy,glum face.Such people send out negative vibrations and repel people.Who wants to be in the company of a cry baby ? Why are happy-go-lucky and jovial persons popular ? Their very nature propels people towards them and such persons always have a lot of friends.So be happy and make others happy.

Hi olny, Thank you for starting this discussion and it is a very good one. I see that you are new to myLot and I would like to welcome you here. I hope that you will make many good friends and some money. We do have a choice when it comes to being happy, and that has been proven to be true by many people. You are right that we should focus on the small things in life and be happy just as we are right now. Remember that we can only be happy now, it doesn't depend on material things so we should never think that we will be happy when we get such and such a thing. The only time we ever have is now,so this is the time to be happy. Smile and think happy thoughts, it will make all the difference in the world. Blessings.

To be happy is a simple thing if we want to be. I think to be happy with our life,firstly we must learn to enjoy simple things. Next,we should learn to appreciate and learn to satisfied. In life,jealousy and greed are elements that can make us upset. The more we desire,the more we are upset to be.

Yes, your correct Yenwie..^_^ Jealousy and greed can really make us upset...But more than that, it can destroy us... Well, lets just be contented for what we have and beat our own records and not to look in others...^_^ Thank you for your comment..^_^
