Happiness Strengths

a strong back,
working legs, 
keen eyes, 
non-sore shoulders, 
feet that do not hurt
ears that work well
these to me are happiness

a strong support system
whether it is your natural family
or your friends, 
who have now become your “real” family

a strong work ethic,
enthusiasm for your job and co-workers, 
the ability to get along well with others,
the belief you are making a difference in the world 

a strong faith, 
which keeps hope and optimism in your heart
hobbies or talents that keep you excited 
strengths that can keep happiness alive
