Everyone's perception of happiness differs.
What something one person thinks brings happiness, another may have a totally opposite opinion.
For as many years back as remembered, it's been my joy to jot down and save inspirational sayings and quotes that cross my path.
One, that used to be on the back of a business card of H.C. Mattern, gives these things as the way to happiness:
1) Keep your heart free from hate
2) Your mind from worry
3) Live simply
4) Expect little
5) Give much
6) Fill your life with love
7) Scatter sunshine
8) Forget self
9) Think of others
10) Do as you would be done by

Staying healthy, keeping friendships, using one's talents for good causes, having good weather,
exercising in whatever way you like, and loving God and one another.
Good instructions. For me, good health is the most important thing—everything else will fall into place.
This is a great list, Susan. I love number 1. I am sometimes a worrier about the future, but like you, I love to jot down quotes and verses - they help me along the way. Happy November! I hope this month brings you lots of little goodies.....and maybe one or two big ones. ; )
