What is Happiness

Standard

I received a late Christmas parcel , which had this in it…

chocolates

Isn’t it beautiful how they get you with the English words on a Swiss chocolate, bought in Germany….

I love “I make you Tummy Yummy”……. I thought this is happiness.

Really this is only chocolate which makes you feel good, comfort food and stimulating endorphins.

So What is Happiness:

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

Dalai Lama.

You are in charge of your own happiness:

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.”
~Groucho Marx~

happiness

Happiness is a choice you make at the beginning of every day.

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”   Mahatma Ghandi

I wish you a wonderful and happy week to come,

let yourself shine and bring happiness to others.

With Love and Hugs Ute xx

  2. I saw the photo of the candy bar earlier through my phone, and when my daughter and I found ourselves beside a Lindt store, I just had to go in and see if they had them. I loved the “I’ll Make Your Tummy Yummy!” too. I also wish you a wonderful and happy week!

  3. mmmmm yummy for my tummy Would you be so happy if chocolate suddenly disappeared from the earth????? Now that would take some real attitude adjustment!!! I had brownies and cookies for breakfast, but don’t tell on me. I’m on a diet! But I’m happy! 🙂

    • Earth without chocolate…. no way….. what would women talk about if whey cannot diet and can’t feel guilty for eating chocolate……………….It is a lifeline……I am now on a diet too…. just for a little while… just veg… 🙂

      • I’m not so sure I could go that far. I just try to eat LESS! (chocolate)!! Minus the brownie and cookies I ate for breakfast today, and the pumpkin pancakes I had for breakfast on Saturday, along with the chocolate truffle, 2 snickerdoodle cookies, 2 brownies, and regular food. Yikes! Back to the diet pills!!!

  4. Have a step grand daughter who is a candidate for 6th grade art school as emphasis with regular course education. This Saturday and Sunday we spent about 18 hours creating 10 graphic art samples for her admission consideration. I was really happy working with her and I didn’t even realize I missed my grandpa naps both days.

    • Great to hear you had a wonderful time with your grand daughter, forgetting your naps… that is happiness. You can sleep through the next 2 days….. 🙂 Thanks for your thoughts! Appreciate it very much! Have a wonderful day!
