Scatter Joy and Happiness

~Sending you HAPPY little thoughts~
One Laugh banishes a thousand worries 

Scatter Joy and Happiness

“If you are too busy to laugh, you are too busy.”  Proverb

“It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living.”  F. Scott Fitzgerald

“Life will bring you pain all by itself.  Your responsibility is to create joy.” Milton Erickson

When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. 
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see in truth that you are weeping for that which has been your delight.”  Kahlil Gibran

“Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don’t even remember leaving open.” Robert Brault

“Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.”  Joseph Campbell

“A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one’s neighbor — such is my idea of happiness.” Leo Tolstoy

“The grass is always greener where you water it.”  Unknown

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”  Marcel Proust

Grow happiness under your paws

“The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance,
 the wise grows it under his feet.” 
James Oppenheim

Beautiful post, Sue! I was not familiar with most of those quotes. I especially like Tolstoy's.

Yes, Jean I was especially taken by Tolstoy's too. It's amazing what great stuff is out there if we only go looking for it!
