HOW DOES ONE BECOME HAPPY?

A better question is, "What is the purpose of life?" There is not a correct answer to the 'purpose' question. If there is an answer, it remains a mystery. Religious scholars and philosophers have wrestled with this question for thousands of years. They have not been able to come up with a plausible answer that is acceptable to everyone. Hey, maybe, every one's purpose is different! Maybe, the secret to happiness is discovering your purpose and working to achieve it. By Jove, I may be on to something! I have done what no man has done before; I have defined the meaning of life!

Psychologist tell us that moments of happiness occur when we are "in the zone" of doing something well, that is difficult to do, and that we enjoy doing. Unfortunately, we can not always be in the zone. So, we are not always happy, but we have our moments. General happiness comes from spirituality, love, and human relationships. It also comes from a balance between work and play. And, let's not forget that helping others makes us happy. And, Being moral and fair in our dealings with others makes us feel good about ourselves (happy). I suggest that you live, love, laugh, and think your way to the path of happiness!!!
