These are all things that will make you temporarily happy.  When the cause of the happiness is taken away, you become unhappy again.How can you be happy all the time? How can you feel an inner joy every moment? If you have wealth and a bad partner you might not be all that happy.  If you become healthy, without enjoying the food you love, you will not be really happy.

  1. Being happy is not having a sky without storms, roads without accidents, work without fatigue, relationships without disappointments.

    Being happy is finding strength in forgiveness and hope in battle, safety on the stage of fear, love the mismatches.

    Being happy is not just enhance the smile, but reflect on the sadness.

    It's not just celebrate the success, but to learn lessons from their failures. Not only have joy in applause, but find joy in anonymity.

    To be happy is to recognize that life is worth living, despite all the challenges, misunderstandings and periods of crisis.

    Being happy is not a twist of fate, but who knows a winning travel within your own being.

    To be happy is to stop being a victim of the problems and become the author's own story. It is cross deserts outside itself, but being able to find an oasis in the secret of his soul. You thank God every morning for the miracle of life.

    Being happy is not afraid of your feelings. It is able to speak for itself. You have the courage to hear a "no." And be sure to receive criticism, even unfair. You kiss the children, parents, and enjoy poetic moments with friends, even if they hurt us.

    To be happy is to let the child live free, happy and simple lives within you. It is having the maturity to say: "I was wrong." It take courage to say: "Forgive me." It is to be sensitive ETC .........................
