IN SEARCH OF HAPPINESS
.
Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile.
~Sir Wilfred Grenfell
To be happy is easy enough if we give of ourselves, forgive others, and live with thanksgiving. No self-centered person, no ungrateful soul can ever be happy, much less make anyone else happy. Life is giving, not getting.
~Joseph Fort Newton
Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
~Helen Keller
It is the paradox of life that the very way to miss pleasure is to seek it first. The very condition of lasting happiness is that a life should be full of purpose, aiming at something outside self.
~Hugh Black
