The only people I am aware of who don't have troubles are gathered in peaceful, little neighborhoods. There is never a care, never a moment of stress and never an obstacle to ruin a day. All is calm. All is serene. Most towns have at least one such worry-free zone. We call them cemeteries.

We could all do with a bit more joy in our lives couldn't we? The wonderful thing is that when we start spreading joy, we begin to actually experience more joy in our lives too!

Just about ANY personality trait or skill can be learned: simply find it in someone you know and copy it. Then watch what happens.

Find 100 reasons to laugh. You are bound to feel better, you will cope with problems more effectively and people will enjoy being around you. Besides unhappiness, what do you have to lose?

Get yourself grounded and you can navigate even the stormiest roads in peace.

Of course we need to accept ourselves as we are, but we can't stop there. We also need to value ourselves enough make needed changes.

Learn - improve - grow - live. Learn as if you might live forever and you'll live as if you might die tomorrow.
