Don't Worry, Be Happy?

(best quote, in my humble opinion)- Those who can laugh without cause have either found the true meaning of happiness or have gone stark raving mad.
~Norm Papernick

Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open.
~John Barrymore


The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet.
~James Openheim

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.
~Margaret Young

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.
~Hugh Downs

Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response.
~Mildred Barthel.

If you want happiness for an hour take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day go fishing.
If you want happiness for a month get married.
If you want happiness for a year inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime help someone else.
- Chinese proverb

Look, I don't really want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you're alive you've got to flap your arms and legs, you got to jump around a lot, you got to make a lot of noise, because life is the very opposite of death. And therefore, as I see it, if you're quiet, you're not living. You've got to be noisy and colorful and lively.
~Mel Brooks

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
~Dalai Lama


Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower.
~Author Unknown

Whoever is happy will make others happy, too.
~Mark Twain

You cannot always have happiness, but you can always give happiness. ~Author Unknown


You will never be happier than you expect. To change your happiness, change your expectation. ~Bette Davis

Happiness is the feeling you're feeling when you want to keep feeling it.
~Author Unknown


There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness.
~Lady Blessington

We are no longer happy so soon as we wish to be happier. (LAME)
~Walter Savage Landor


AND the LAMEST but funniest Quote goes to....

"The best vitamin to be a happy person is B1."
~Author Unknown

Get it? No?

How can I be happy when things are not going my way?
  • Injured my thumb while trying to save my own life which results in the most painful pain I have ever felt during the minor surgery
  • Lost my belongings(wallet, phone). Was stolen while playing futsal. IC, Driving license, contacts, pictures, all GONE!! So much of hassle, procedures and the INEFFICIENT policemen/women.
Regardless, let's look at it positively cuz I am still alive, I'll get a new phone, and most importantly,
I HAVE AN EXTENSION FOR MY ASSIGNMENT!!!! YEAY!!!!! =)


Finally, my personal quote :

When ppl ard u can feel ur happiness, they will be happy too. Share the happiness but if possible, face sadness positively without affecting the ppl ard u.
