THE BEST LIFE

Published on 26 November 2023 at 19:29

As I was sitting down to write, “happiness quotient” came to mind. I don’t know why. I don’t know what it is. I have no interest in finding out. It’s not a good use of my time.

I love you.

A quotient is the answer to a division problem. Why must happiness be divided? The answers are inside each one of us. We are happy or unhappy. We take responsibility for our actions, or we don’t. Sometimes figuring out what is troubling us is as simple as writing things down, paying attention to what is going into our heads and hearts. We need to talk to ourselves. We need to throw away the clutter of things we can do nothing about. We need to do what we can to have the best life. Wherever you are in life, whatever your circumstance, gratitude is a pathway to happiness.

Linda, sometimes I wonder if I’m a real simpleton … I had to read this several times before I could almost grasp it. And I can’t even say fully grasp, because I’m not there yet! Anyway it’s beautiful, and so are you. I love you.
