Are you happy? What does it take to be happy? There are some basic requirements needed for happiness in life. They are not hard to achieve. Keeping them, on the other hand, is where we all find difficulty.
What do we need to be happy?
-
Peaceful home and living environment…one where you have a feeling of security and safety – in short: Peace of Mind.
-
A caring and loving family and supportive friends you can trust and count on and that they can count on you.
-
Good Physical and Mental Health, you can’t have one without the other, and both are hard to keep.
-
At least three meals a day, clean clothing, and roof on our head (shelter).
-
Do you have a “Purpose in life?” Don’t guess, don’t just say something others say, think about it: what is your “Purpose,” not sure, don’t worry. Many people don’t have a “true calling.” A calling when you make a personal vow and dedication in your heart and mind that you are going to focus on that purpose.
-
HOPE – Without hope, there is no hope! Hope for the future is an important key to happiness. Because when things are down, HOPE tells us things will get better.
I was once told to”Remember hope is never lost, it’s just up to you to get up and fight through it. Don’t lose hope! ” Of Course, what they told me was a bit confusing! Since they first told me “ hope is never lost” then ended with “Don’t lose hope.“… Now that is my type of AMBIGUOUS advice. Reminds me of my favorite Mental Health Humor cartoon.
