Is there a secret to happiness?
Bob Marley sang:
“In every life we have some trouble,
When you worry you make it double
Don’t worry, be happy.”
When you worry you make it double
Don’t worry, be happy.”
Is there a secret to being happy?
By reflecting upon my own life and on the lives of some of the happy and unhappy people with whom I have lived and worked, I offer the following suggestions:
- Happiness is enjoyed in simplicity...but it also touches feelings of depth.
- Happiness lives fully in the present...but it is not afraid to dream dreams.
- Happiness may be found where I am...but it does not cling to the permanence of any situation.
- Happiness is shared with other people...but it also cherishes solitude.
