Happiness
Happiness
By Curtis Johnson
Happiness is the pursuit of goodness, and the ability to enjoy the good, tolerate the ugly, and alter the bad.
Assist others as best you can; share with them how you learned to fish; give them a pole, and wave goodbye.
Pray to God Almighty, realizing how helpless you are without Him, and let His ‘still small voice’ guide you.
People may or may not change, but you must make changes and appropriate adjustments all the days of your life.
Inhale, exhale, breath in, breath out, give in and give up sometimes; but do your best to never give out until death.
Never completely rely on what you hear; look several times at what you see; and feelings are too flimsy to be trusted.
Encourage yourself and others to invest time and money in the following: Your spiritual life, your family, your church, your country.
Start, even if you do not finish, stay focused as long as you can, and you will the proud of your accomplishments.
Stand up for what you believe; speak up for the God in whom you trust; never shut down the truth, but say it with love.
