Quotes About Being Happy


They say that happiness is nothing but a state of mind, and I couldn't agree more. Happiness is what all of us strive for. What makes you happy? Does looking at nature, smiling babies, laughing out loud, playing with your pet, shopping for shoes or clothes, volunteering, gardening, dancing, or singing make you happy? Then put these things into perspective and pursue happiness.

Stop complaining, relying on others for your happiness, or comparing yourself with others, and for a change, enjoy what you have and value happiness. Similarly, don't dwell in the past or future, but have a positive mindset and live for today. Resolve to let go of all negative thoughts, this won't be easy at first, but the more you try, the better you will get at it.
