Hi mathgadiano!
Yes, you are right, life is short so we should enjoy it and be happy always. It takes a lot of effort especially if there are many problems and other concerns. Sometimes when I worry and feel down, I always count my blessings and this makes me grateful and happy to be alive.
I look at my husband and two daughters and I feel so blessed to have them in my life. I also take the time to explore nature. I am lucky that we live in the suburb where there are lots of trees so I hug them to get energy.
I also have my happy thoughts. These are the past experiences that make me smile and it never fail to lift up my spirit.
When I have time I also watch comedy shows that my family and I love like "That's So Raven". This always help me laugh to my heart's content.
Happiness is not expensive, in fact it is free and it is a choice. So choose happiness always!

Yes,you are right,we have very little time on this earth better we spend this time with happiness.But you know it is not easy to be happy every time.The people and situations around us do not let us to leave happily,they haunt us every time.And our desires and ambitions also makes us busy and under stress.I think the person who has spiritual knowledge only can be happy,the ordinary people who do know the truth of life will fight for his desires and happiness till the end.

I do agree that it is very important for you to be happy, but sometimes we can't help being unhappy in life if there are things that are bothering us. The most important thing that we should all do is try to find ways to cope with our lives in order to make them a little bit easier for us. You should learn ways that you can relax, as you will probably find that this is a good way to get rid of anything that might be bothering you at the time. Smiling can be fantastic, is it kind of tricks your mind into thinking that you're happy, even though you might not be.

Umm, no offense but it's impossible for a normal, well-balanced individual to smile and be happy all the time. Not only that, it's not very good for your mental health.
Now, always looking for the positive in things is a much better way to live. You can't always be happy but you can always try to look out for the good things and appreciate them, even when you're sad, angry, frustrated...

Indeed I really try and be happy all of the time. Of course there is a fine line between trying and actually doing. There are going to be some moments that really do test this resolve to say the very least. There are going to be a lot of time where even a lost moment of bitterness can really make all of the difference in the world.
A more positive outlook on life is really going to do a pretty good thing with making our lives much more enjoyable to say the very least. Life is what it is when you really think about it. There are going to be many times where it might feel like the darkest in the life. However we must press on and really get the best out of life.

Hello mathgadiano
This is absolute right way to get everything right.There is a lot of problems in life and it will be there always, whatever you do, the new problem arise.So it is not possible to remove all problems except just one way to face with a smile on face and be happy while facing it then it will not remain a problem to you.Its just the part of your life and that is true.We see around ourselves what we want to see so just be happy and see the world happy.

I am always telling myself to be happy all the times. But it is much easier said than done. I couldn't control my mood some times and get mad at myself. Also, I hate the office atmosphere and some people here. Maybe that's one reason that I am not happy in the daytime. This is not good.

Simple but very good advice. We should not waste our time to be lonely. Make an effort to stay happy all the time. This is similar to my article "Making Your Life Happy 24/7" in Wikinut.
