Spreading Happiness

Spare no effort to share the goodness of life Put aside pettiness and destructive over-expectations Realize that I/you are not the center of the universe Expect the best and give no less than you would expect Absolute abandonment of self breeds happiness for self and others Dance, even if you can't, expressing love, joy, and peace to all I choose true happiness without regard to being jolly or merry Narcissism rots the bones and breeds atmospheric toxicity Gratitude builds character and generates love and generosity Happiness, that is, the modern-day quest for it, is overrated Actual and true happiness lies within and cannot be bought People pursue trying to be happy through possessions and relationships Poise and peace follow our being rightly connected to our creator Inspiring others to pursue God's will for them puts happiness within reach Negativity is deadly, spreading fires that are destructive to happiness Economies go north and south, up and down; true happiness is not volatile Saturate the world with random and targeted acts of kindness with a smile Selflessness is a gigantic act of love and brings happiness to self and others 031723PSCtest, Spreading Happiness.
