If we only look around us, there are a thousand reasons for us not to be happy, and it is simplicity itself to blame our unhappiness on the things we lack in life. It doesnโt take any talent at all to find them. The problem is, the more we focus on the things we donโt have, the more unhappy and more resentful we become.
Joseph B. WirthlinGratitude is a mark of a noble soul and a refined character. We like to be around those who are grateful. They tend to brighten all around them. They make others feel better about themselves. They tend to be more humble, more joyful, more likable.
Joseph B. WirthlinThose who make happiness the chief objective of life are bound to fail, for happiness is a by-product rather than an end in itself.
