Happiness..... Fallacy or Reality ?

“This is why I tell you not to be worried about the food and drink you need in order to stay alive, or about clothes for your body. 

After all, isn't life worth more than food? 

And isn't the body worth more than clothes? 

Look at the birds: they do not sow seeds, gather a harvest and put it in barns; yet your Father in heaven takes care of them! 

Aren't you worth much more than birds? 

Can any of you live a bit longer by worrying about it? Matthew 6:25-27

Somewhere it is written: 

“As surely as a spark flies from the fire, so sure can a man be of trouble.”

How do you measure happiness? 

One way is to add up the moments of happiness you experience and subtract them from the moments of unhappiness. 

So when last did you count your moments of happiness or unhappiness? 

One author says it is silly to expect long periods of happiness alternating with long stretches of unhappiness. 

Instead, we experience moments of happiness and moments of sadness or unhappiness on and off during the day. 

Each day contains at least one happy moment – even if it is just watching a bird taking a bath in your garden or your dog welcoming you home after a hard day’s work....! 
In our daily interaction with our Loved ones we constantly experience happy moments...... We need to take time to make ourselves happy. 

How about getting up a little earlier in the morning to set the table for the family to enjoy breakfast together over small talk. 

It’s not about what is said, but about the moments of intimacy you create.

Happiness is not found in books about happiness..... 

Happiness cannot be bought.... 

Happiness cannot grow where negativity thrives. 

Happiness lies in random acts of kindness and caring. 

It’s finding meaning in the everyday, the simple, the unromantic, the ordinary things we do. In short, happiness means discovering the sacred in the ordinary run of life.....

May your ATTITUDE allow your  eyes  to be opened to moments of happiness that are abundantly bestowed on us often when we least expect them..... !

Shalom .......... & Maranatha !
