Secret To Happiness

By Cydne Buckley

Do any of us know what makes us happy? Money, spouse,girlfriend/boyfriend? Or is it your best friend? Are any of theses choices right. Let us take a look.

Let us start with money. Between having money and being broke having money is in first place. And having a large amount of money takes the stress out of that part of your life. Being able to make mortgage payments, car payments and the normal household expenses like food, electric, heat and phone are very satisfying.

Living in a nice home and driving a nice car is very rewarding. Your home is where you come to relax and unwind in pleasant surroundings. Your car is very important too. Having one that runs well all the time is a pleasant feeling. There is nothing worse than the feeling of being on a highway late at night with a car that has broken down.

Is the secret your spouse? Are you all giddy every time you are around them? I would like to thin so, but I doubt it. The divorce rate is so high many couples do not stay together very long. Besides most women work today and they get a chance to see the world from another angle. Could it be boyfriend/girlfriend? They change faster than your underwear. Best friends move very often and we forget each other.

The answer is none of the above. The one person that makes you happy is you! Although you may get some good feelings from a car, home, spouse,etc. they are always temporary. Being happy is a decision we make everyday. When you get up in the morning look in the mirror and say "I will be happy all day today. I know problems will come up and I will handle them. My happiness has nothing to do with challenges. My being happy is constant and nothing is going to interfere with me being happy."

You have to take complete responsibility for whatever comes your way in life. I know of no other way that takes the blame game out of your life. The blame game does not solve any of your problems. From this moment on take responsibility for your own happiness.
