~ On Happiness ~
-
If you seek happiness directly, it tends not to work. But if you become present with what is, accepting what is, then before you know it happiness suddenly arises within you.
~ Eckhart Tolle
-
If we’ve affixed our sense of happiness to wealth and status, career success, achievement, where we go to college or how we look, the minute one of those pillars topples, you’re not happy anymore.
~Dr. Shefali Tsabary

Wonderful reminders. Thanks

Happiness must be cultivated. It's like a muscle...
-
It is hard to train your mind & heart to concentrate on the "happy" rather than the negativity or sadness when in crisis. The only thing that helps is perhaps "acceptance".
-
A flower needs nourishment and muscle needs cultivation just like you said.

Hey!
Thanks for sharing these inspirational quotes. Here's my favourite:
"Happiness comes, one watches and does not become identified with it. One does not say, ‘I am happy. Peace, it is wonderful.’ One simply watches, one says, ‘Yes, a white cloud passing.’
“And then comes unhappiness, and one does not become unhappy either. One says, ‘A black cloud passing. I am the witness, the watcher.’"
OSHO
Have a nice day!

Happiness is the joy we feel striving toward our potential.

That last one is an Ancient Greek saying I believe.
