Don't Worry...Be Happy


Have you ever wondered what makes one person so happy? Happy to be alive, happy to wake up everyday, and happy to have that inner peace that so many of us lack? Why is it that someone with all the money and power in the world can be absolutely empty inside, and never find personal happiness and satisfaction, while a person with a simple, quiet life can be filled with inner calm and joy? I truly believe that when a person is internally fullfilled, happy with who they are as a person, and are comfortable with themselves, can they be happy and have that inner peace and spirituality that most people nowadays do not have. When you can look inside yourself and be proud and relaxed with who you are, where you've been, and where you think you are headed, you can realize that happiness will be, if not already, in your grasp. Because when you are happy, you are able to live knowing that there will be tomorrow, that today's sorrow and misfortune is temporary, and that everything...the good, bad, and terrible, will be OK. All the bad stuff will pass, and there will be that "rainbow" at the end of the dark tunnel. That's how optimists, and today's most successful and long-living people think. I believe one of their greatest philosophy is "don't worry, be happy." If you're down today, there's tomorrow. If you're zero now, tomorrow you can be a ten. It's not how many BMWs, houses, bank accounts, or fans you have. It's that inner peace, that comfort and love of yourself, and a strong spiritual sense that can truly bring out happiness. Remember, it's not how many times you fall...it's how many times you get up again. Don't worry...Be happy.
Here's a fun website about many quotes on happiness:
