The word happy comes from the Old English word hap which meant luck, chance or fortune. The idea that some things just seem to happen, by happenstance, for no discernible reason. So, happiness is an intensity of spirit that allows one to not just passively accept whatever comes but to actively engage with it and use it to propel one deeper into destiny. The best image I can think of is surfing: abandoning oneself to energy, to the flow, but at the same time being perfectly controlled and balanced – toned and honed – within oneself.
A happy person never complains, not for long anyway.
Happiness is not something the world bestows upon us but something we give back to the world.
The secret to happiness is balance and resilience – the ability to yield but then bounce back.
Happiness is a way of life, not just a chance occurrence.
Happiness is for life not just for Christmas.
