Happiness is a feeling that every one want in their life but things that gives people joy is always different, some people want money as they believe it can solve 90 percent of their problem, some want a child and some just want to be loved....

Happiness start with contentment, the moment we stop comparing ourself to other people, we will not be disappointed to the extent of losing our joy...

Life is a journey, some people will move very fast but it doesn't mean they will be the first to reach the finish line, some people may not be fast at the beginning but half way through the journey they get their speed and start moving at fast pace while some never get that speed until at the very end...

This is why you see some people getting rich at the age of 20, some people are poor through their 30's but at 40 they become rich while some only get rich at their old age, how funny life can be...

I have learn not to be envious of anyone because my story is different from theirs, i was not born with a silver spoon but i am trying my best to give my children that life i never had and it only get better as days goes on....

Sometimes when things are not going the way i want it or i suddenly felt like all the strong forces in the world are against me, i just put everything on hold because at that very moment, dream world is better than reality.. Solution comes when the mind is clear..

Time heals all pain and mistakes are part of life so never ever think of hurting yourself because of your mistakes because as time tick, your mistakes and pains goes with the wind...

You are in a competition with no one but yourself, the goal is to be keep getting better every day, when you look back at your past life, you should always have a reason to rejoice over your accomplishment

Too much of everything is a disease, as they say what sweets a man is what kills him.
Knowing when to stop is very much another important key to living a life of content.

Being okay and always thankful and hence very satisfied with the little we have keeps us from trouble and also extravagant life style.

Thanks for sharing this with us boss, life is quite sweet and easy going when we are satisfied with what we have.

Even the Bible tells us that godliness with contentment is great gain.

Sometimes it hurts when things don’t go as we planned or we feel like our mates are way ahead of us and it’s normal to feel that way, but I’ve come to realize that everyone is running their own race and it doesn’t matter who started first, what matters most is we’ll all reach the finish line and finish well in our own time.

This is really inspiring, thank you for sharing😊

I don't even bother checking on who is doing well more than me, what we do not know can't hurt us, i care more about my own progress.... thanks

Absolutely! You’re welcome

Happiness comes from within not from another's opinion about one!

you are right, we can't depend on others to make us happy..

Sometimes one gets consumed with pleasing others...
