Help Yourself To Happiness !
EVERYBODY EVERYWHERE
SEEKS HAPPINESS, IT'S TRUE,
BUT FINDING IT AND KEEPING IT
SEEMS DIFFICULT BECAUSE WE THINK
THAT HAPPINESS IS FOUND
ONLY IN PLACES WHERE
WEALTH AND FAME ABOUND.
AND SO WE GO ON SEARCHING
IN PALACES OF PLEASURE
SEEKING RECOGNITION
AND MONETARY TREASURE,
UNAWARE THAT HAPPINESS
IS JUST A STATE OF MIND
WITHIN THE REACH OF EVERYONE
WHO TAKES TIME TO BE KIND.
FOR IN MAKING OTHERS HAPPY
WE WILL BE HAPPY TOO,
FOR HAPPINESS YOU GIVE AWAY
RETURNS TO SHINE ON YOU !
LOVE YA, ~Barbara

So true. I do wish everyone had enough money for their needs, but that is really all we need.
Love, Angela
The Bible says: \"Cast your bread on the waters and it will return to you after many days.\" The good we do, and the happiness we give, does come back. I truly believe in karma: we reap what we sow. The Bible also says, \"The liberal man will be rich, for in watering others, he waters himself.\"
So very true...I get much happiness from helping others!
That was beautiful!! I do feel better when I help others or can give something to someone that they really need to survive.
Love and hugs, Jean
