हप्पिनेस Happiness

How do we stay consistently happy every day and every moment?
I have recently been thinking a lot about happiness. To simplify a complex issue, I have realized that being happy is a decision that we make everyday.
Is it a decision that we make every moment? If we make the decision to be happy in the beginning of the day do we stay happy throughout the day? Or do we need to make the decision every few hours?
I love other languages so sometimes my titles will be in other languages. This one is in Hindi in honor of one man from whom I get most of my inspiration to live a more loving, tolerant, respectful life.

  1. hi Jon...

    I will love to follow your evolving sense of the world...I hope you are inviting dialogue...

    in the spirit of that hope I wonder if since, as Eddy says, "Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love..." whether it is a choice or whether our desire for it is God asserting Himself and His promise in our hearts...is it a choice or an irrefutable power in us...just a thought...what are your thoughts on this???

  2. I would agree with you that it is spiritual and born of Truth and Love; but I do realize that sometimes we lose sight of that fact that it is already an "irrefutable power in us".
    This blog post is my way of reminding others that we have the moral obligation to be always happy and not the other way around. It only benefits ourselves as well as others. :)
    Thanks for your ideas!
    Stay tuned for more posts.
