On Happiness
One way to be happy is to count your blessings. Happiness cannot be far behind a grateful heart and a peaceful mind. Happiness comes naturally when we are thankful for the little things in life. And those who can’t appreciate what they already have, will never be happy.
From the greatest to the smallest, happiness and usefulness are largely found in the same soul, and the joy of life is won in its deepest and truest sense only by those who have not shirked life's burdens. - Theodore Roosevelt
We are more interested in making others believe we are happy than in trying to be happy ourselves. - Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. - Marcel Proust
Mindfulness helps you go home to the present. And every time you go there and recognize a condition of happiness that you have, happiness comes. - Thich Nhat Hanh
It is well to have as many holds upon happiness as possible. - Jane Austen
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it. - Jacques Prévert
Maybe happiness is this: not feeling that you should be elsewhere, doing something else, being someone else. - Eric Weiner
Blessed are the happiness-makers! Blessed are they that take away attrition, that remove friction, that make the courses of life smooth, and the intercourse of men gentle! - Henry Ward Beecher
Nothing prevents happiness like the memory of happiness. - Andre Gide
One cannot divine nor forecast the conditions that will make happiness; one only stumbles upon them by chance, in a lucky hour, at the world's end somewhere. - Daniel Gilbert
Make cheer from your own heart, for the sun rises and sets according to your perspective on the universe. - Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson
No man is happy unless he believes he is. - Publilius Syrus

It is very easy to focus on negativity as we need to feel like we are growing or making advancements to be happy. The fact is we have more to be thankful for. Whenever i feel like i'm getting that feeling of dissatisfaction, i try to focus on more positive things but also not become blind to reality at the same time.
Well said, and well done. Your comment is much appreciated. :-)
