How do You Yourself Learn to Be Happy in Your Life?

May 14, 2017 8:48pm CST
I was reading some encouraging information today after having an awkward interaction today of all days. An encouraging thought was to be happy in your life right now. We never know what tomorrow may bring or if we will even see tomorrow. I thought this was a perfect point for me to reflect on as I strive to center myself to be happy for others and yet not allow others intent to try and bring me down get to me. My life is what it is at this point and time and just because I don't have the largest house, with multiple bathrooms, and three car garages doesn't mean that I should work my life away to obtain those things.

I am happy of what I am having in my life at the moment: work, family, no debts, and health is not bad. But every time I do something good for some one, I feel happier...

@katherinerose123 Thank you. I say I am 100% happy then I'm not telling you the truth. What about you? Happier now?

I learned to be happy by appreciating simple things in my life.

@katherinerose123 I think this is what some people forget the appreciation of simple things.

@shavkat That truly is the truth! When we can be happy with simple things and in that sense also living a simple life it can do wonders for our mindset and our life as a whole.
