Happiness...



 

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
- Buddha


Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment. There always is the potential to create an environment of blame -- or one that is conducive to loving-kindness.
- Pema Chodron

Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open.
- John Barrymore

BBC has a collection of articles and videos on the study of happiness, from the science behind happiness to the politics of happiness--- all of which are very interesting.   Take a look.
