How to Get a Happy Heart

The little wooden figurine pictured in today's post carries an important message.

It's really true that a happy heart loves all.

 (Well, can we change that to almost all? There are some really terribly behaved human beings in this world who hurt others. Those without a conscience are the hardest to love, I think.)

How do we show love?

Here's a mini-list:

* Try to look at the best in a person, rather than the worst.

* Refrain from talking negatively about someone. Instead, think of his/her good traits and concentrate on those instead.

* Be kind toward all, including crabby clerks or other kinds of workers. One never knows what is going on in their personal lives.

* If someone yells at you, refrain from yelling back. If you have to respond, do it in a "whispery" voice.

* Take deep breaths when someone is bugging you. Then, exit the room as soon as possible.

* Be kind and understanding.   

*  Stay away from gossip and people who gossip.  If that person talks about others, you know he/she is going to talk about you, too!

* Pray for people who bug you, who get under your skin.  They need prayers more than anything.

* Appreciate those who love you. Tell them you love them. Be good to them.  They are in your life for a purpose.

* Be gentle with yourself. 

* Stay close to God.
