To be happy, we must not be too concerned with others.
We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them.

Be joyful because it is humanly possible.
Unless you make a daily effort to see the world as God sees it, you will never get beyond mere appearances.

Remember happiness doesn't depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think

Be kind whenever possible.It is always possible.
Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.
Morality is not properly the doctrine of how we may make ourselves happy, but how we may make ourselves worthy of happiness.
