“The best kind of happiness is a habit you're passionate about.”
Shannon L. Alder

“My simple explanation of why we human beings, the most advanced species on earth, cannot find happiness, is this: as we evolve up the ladder of being, we find three things: the first, that the tension between the range of opposites in our lives and society widens dramatically and often painfully as we evolve; the second, that the better informed and more intelligent we are, the more humble we have to become about our ability to live meaningful lives and to change anything, even ourselves; and consequently, thirdly, that the cost of gaining the simplicity the other side of complexity can rise very steeply if we do not align ourselves and our lives well.”
Dr Robin Lincoln Wood

Thomas  Moore
“The preparation of food also serves the soul in a number of ways. In a general sense, it gives us a valuable, ordinary opportunity to meditate quietly, as we peel and cut vegetables, stir pots, measure out proportions, and watch for boiling and roasting. We can become absorbed in the sensual contemplation of colors, textures, and tastes as, alchemists of the kitchen, we mix and stir just the right proportions.”
Thomas Moore

“The way it begins...
It is never the way it ends
No gods or destiny...
Has your life written beforehand

Everyone's journey...
Is to balance their Yin and Yang
And one will know peace...
The moment one can.”
Ricardo Derose

“How can I possibly find the right one, if the one that I have right now couldn't let me go?”
Ressha

“I always thought that the "thriving" would come when everything was perfect, and what I learned is that it's actually down in the mess that things get good.
It was such a blessing to find myself thriving in the middle of the pain. Unless you find a way to do that, there's always going to be this fake illusion that once you get there-wherever "there" is for you-you'll be happy. But that's just not life. If you can't find happiness in the ugliness, you're not going to find it in the beauty, either.”
Joanna Gaines, The Magnolia Story

“Happiness is odd
Found in mysterious places
Where you least expect it
Like a glowing penny on the floor
Not everyone can find it
And sometimes you lose it
 
Some find it in small things
Others see it in large things
If you cling to it
You’ll make it through
Because
Happiness is odd”
Aleena Sebastian, Speaking Up for Each Other: A Collection of Short Stories for Tweens and Middle Grade Readers

Raymond E. Feist
“Among our people we have the recognition, the sudden knowledge that a mate is before you. Not all our people know this certainty, and to them falls the difficult task of slowly building a bond with another who has also not known the recognition. With Calis and Elien, it is the difficult way. But often it ends in a love as profound as the first.”
Raymond E. Feist, Shards of a Broken Crown

“Happiness is not something you will miraculously find one day in the distant future.

Happiness is something that you develope over time, with your actions, thoughts, feelings, connections, and experiences everyday.

Don't wait for the future to hope and find happiness, for the future is unknown.

You can start creating your own happiness today, and everyday!"

- David Paul”
David Paul Vosburg

“If you assign your happiness to external circumstances, you will never find the one thing we all deserve...joy in life.”
Andrew Pacholyk, Barefoot ~ A Surfer's View of the Universe

“As to not bestir Joseph, who was fast asleep and snoring, Nellie softly said to him, “You know . . . their departure is rather bittersweet,” she whispered. “I left my siblings. Ma and pa left them. Then my siblings left to find us. Now they have left us so they may find themselves.” Nellie let out a soft chuckle. “Funny how life is.”
LAURA LANGDON, Nobody's Bride: A Nellie Bishop Romance

Jessie Newton
“Now she just had to figure out how to find the good in life again. How to laugh at herself again. How to find humor and happiness in a difficult situation or a difficult time.”
Jessie Newton, The Summer Sand Pact

“Remind yourself that even if you are feeling BLUE, your life still has colour to it.”
