That her relationship with him was like being content in a house but always sitting by the window and looking out Picture Quote #1

If we observe genuinely happy people, we shall find that they do not just sit around being contented. They make things happen. They pursue new understandings, seek new achievements, and control their thoughts and feelings. In sum, our intentional, effortful activities have a powerful effect on how happy we are, over and above the effects of our set points and the circumstances in which we find themselves. If an unhappy person wants to experience interest, enthusiasm, contentment, peace, and joy, he or she can make it happen by learning the habits of a happy person Picture Quote #1

I can do everything through him who gives me strength Picture Quote #1

We have an innate sensibility for being content, feeling joyful, and living in happiness without conditions. Happiness is a natural condition of existence Picture Quote #1
