Thank you :)

My GF ( @truthmomma ) and I were talking about this yesterday! BTW I mentioned you in my WeChat article yesterday.

"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” -Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Keep up the great work! @tralawar

Aww I love that quote! Thank you for mentioning me LOL

I believe the background of Frankl's quote pertains to his time in the holocaust. After he lost everything he made the choice to be happy.

I can't even imagine being around during that time. That would be so hard to be happy, If not impossible.

Hopefully, we won't head back to that time again.

I'm always down for some happiness hacks.

Good :) Anything to make your day better

Happiness comes when we are satisfied with what we have.. .when desires are greater than the fulfillment our happiness is squeezed out...hard to say that people are happy in todays world...as we see them running after to achieved more than what their neighbors have...they want the high standard life...and for that they are ready to do whatever it take....set goals have turned to be setted target...bullseye.

Happiness is a state of mind. You could have a million dollars and all the material things, a beautiful family and everything you ever wanted, and still be miserable. You could also be broke and riding a bike with a flat tire and love every minute of life. If you focus on the negative and how you didn't get that promotion, or raise, or your significant other left you, then you will be miserable. If you can appreciate that you are alive and healthy, that you have a job, a family or whatever, however imperfect they are, then you will find yourself smiling a lot more.

I agree! MOney can help at times, (So you aren't starving) It's all about attitude like you said.

A very uplifting post, thanks so much for sharing! I especially love your suggestion to try new things—such a great, easy tip to help break out of patterns of stagnation and find new inspiration in life.

Thank you ! It's so true It makes all the difference.

Definitely! I checked out some of your other posts and love your attitude toward life, and of course your art. Count me as a new follower. :)

To be happy, we need confidence in the future, and the constant changes in themselves or in their environment.

So true! I agree

You are @kaylinart, happiness is just a matter of choice but for some choosing just to be happy is difficult. This may happen person who dont seem to understand what happiness. There other people will treat happiness as some sort of feelings whenever you have succeeded on something you want and if fail, happiness is not a matter at all. Everything that happens in life has reason, if you fail on something doesn't mean that you are failure, it might mean that there is something that is intended to you.

True, I agree that you are not a failure if you fail. In fact failure is healthy because you gain experiences.

Thank you! I will keep some of these in mind!

No problem :) I'm glad they helped you!

What a great post! I´m looking forward to your stories!
