I am not surprised at what men suffer, but I am surprised at what men miss.

Happy for no reason

Be happy to give of yourself, and you’ll be happy. Be happy to make the effort, and you’ll be happy.

Be happy about working through the challenges, and you’ll be happy. Be happy for the opportunity to transform problems into achievements, and you’ll be happy.

Happiness does not come when you try to obtain it. Happiness is a quality that you can choose to add to any experience.

Happiness does not come from arranging your circumstances in a certain way. Rather, happiness is a very powerful, effective and delightful way to relate to any set of circumstances.

Be happy to be living this moment. And not only will you be happy, you’ll also be creative and effective and purposefully focused.

Choose to add your very own happiness to the ups and downs and ins and outs of life. Be happy for no reason and for every reason, and experience life at its best.

— Ralph Marston
