PORTRAITS OF HAPPINESS


Life is brief
Grudges deprive us of perfect happiness
Laugh as much as you can
Apologize as much as you should
And let go of what you can’t change

Love deeply and forgive quickly
Have no time for regrets
Life is too short to be full of sadness
You have to take the good with the bad

Smile cheerfully when you are sad
Love what you’ve got
And always remember what you’ve had had
Always forgive as you learn from your mistakes
Because life still goes on…

  1. Right on the money! Grudges, in particular, are toxic. The longer you carry them, the bigger they grow, and the harder they are to get rid of. As you do, I believe in apologizing, forgiving, and moving on. If you choose to avoid someone, fine: just get on with your life without them, but don't forever dwell on whatever they said or did to you.

  2. That's the spirit of a happy soul li. Life's beautiful, it's wonderful, it's precious. it's the most beautiful poem, the most beautiful song... it's the most beautiful rose but we ought to learn to live happily even with the thorns around...
