How to get happiness Secondly, happiness consists in contentment. A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress. Try to enjoy what you have and don’t long for what you can not obtain.
Finally, hope is the way that you pursue in your life. You can not have a dream beyond your reach but you must always have hope and try to make it come true.
You will feel happy if you try to keep these in your mind.
Happiness is a butterfly, which , when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will?sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
