In Order To Be Happy You Need 3 Things

 In Order To Be Happy You Need 3 Things

I read the funnies every morning. Believe it or not, my favorite funny is Pickles. This morning's Pickles wrote "In Order To Be Happy You Need 3 Things." I'll give you my positive interpretation.

"Something To Do" 

Doing and accomplishing something will make you happy. Sitting on you comfortable chair, doing nothing, won't make you happy. Read a book, take a walk, take up a hobby (I'm learning the guitar), meet friends, etc, etc, etc.

"Something To Love"

I love my car. I love my house. I love my pool. I love living in Vegas and most of all, I love my Joyce. What do you love? It's critical to love something if you want to be happy. It's easy to love a pet, because they give you unconditional love back. It's easy to love friends and family. However, try loving something that doesn't give back - I love writing my Blogs.

"Something To Hope For"

This is really important for your happiness. Losing hope will never make you happy. Even if what you hope for doesn't happen, at least you have hope for the future. I hope for world peace. Will it ever happen in my lifetime - I guess not. However, it makes me feel good to have that hope.

There are so many things for you to hope for. Try writing them down. Start with the ones that you can control. Next, pick ones that might happen. Lastly, pick ones that probably won't happen - you might get surprised.

I hope for being able to play my guitar in front of people. It's in my control if I practice enough. I hope for my bad back getting much better. I'm getting a stimulator inserted into my back so my back might get much better. Just hoping for that outcome makes me happy.

Lastly, I'm still hoping for world peace.

Try that exercise and you will be a happier person
