On Happiness
Here's a condensed version of some ideas I have acquired over the years. It's a two-rule version of how to be happy in life. Maybe it will ring true with some of you.
1. Let Things Go
This is the opposite of being stressed. We let things go as we focus on things outside of ourselves rather than on our problems. We must regularly set those hard things aside via a favorite outlet - a sport, volunteer work, or a relaxing hobby. We need to take deep breaths often and laugh more, lighten up, and not take ourselves so seriously. We need to humbly accept our imperfections and realize it will all be okay.
2. Share Your Love
We need to both share and love. We need relationship with one another. We need love in our lives. We need to give it and receive it. It adds meaning and purpose to who we are as love happens in the midst of everything we do and all that we are.
If you can do both, happiness will surely follow.
