The Little Secret of Happiness

The secret of happiness is to focus on the goodness in other people. Because life is like a painting. To see the beauty of the painting is best to look it under a rays of light, not in a closed and dark room.

The secret of happiness is not to avoid difficulty. Climb the hill, not slide down, and your feet will grow stronger.

The secret of happiness is doing things for other people. Inflowing water will not grow. However, the water that flows freely is always fresh and clear.

The secret of happiness is to learn from other people, and not try to teach them. The more you show how much you know, the more people will try to find deficiencies in your knowledge. Why duck called "stupid"? Because it's too many quack.

The secret of happiness is kindness, see other people as a member of your family. Because each creation is yours. We are all is the one God's creation.
The secret of happiness is laughing with other people, as friends, and not ridicule them, as a judge.

The secret of happiness is not arrogant. When you consider they are important, you'll have friends wherever you go. Remember that the biggest skunks will be the most stinky.

Happiness comes to those who give love freely, which does not ask other people to love them first. Be generous just like the sun that shine without first asking whether people should receive its warmth.

Happiness means to receive any that came, and always say to yourself "I am free in myself."

Happiness means making other people happy. A meadow full of flowers need trees surround it, not a concrete buildings that are rigid. Surround your meadow of life with happiness.

The secret of happiness is to keep your heart open to others, and share life experiences. Heart is like a house door. Sun light can only enter when the door is wide open.

The secret of happiness is to understand that friendship is far more valuable than goods, is worth more than take your own affairs.

Have you got the idea yet?

The Blind Boy and The Man

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: ‘I am blind, please help.‘ There were only a few coins in the hat.





A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.





Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, ‘Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?’

The man said, ‘I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.’
What he had written was: ‘Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.

Great men say, ‘Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness…. In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.’

No Regrets

If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you hugs and kisses and call you back for more.

If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would videotape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time I could spare an extra minute or two to stop and say I love you, instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time there to share your day, well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there would always be tomorrow to make up for an oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything alright.

There will always be another day to say I love you, and I hope that we would never forget that tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, and today might be the last chance you get to hold your beloved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not doing it today? For if tomorrow never comesyou'll surely regret the day, that you didn't take that extra time fopr a kiss, a hug, or even a smile, and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ears, and tell them how much you love them and that you'kll always hold them dear.

Take time to say "I'm sorry, please forgive me", "thank you", or "It's okay". And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
