Happiness Choices Show Our Values

"It is our choices…that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities. "
J.K. Rowling

Our choices revel who we really are. This is as true with happiness as it is with all other facets of our lives!

Our choices reveal our values, beliefs, ideals and our boundaries.

The world values us by what we value most.

If we cherish truth, goodness, kindness, caring, compassion, charity and concern for others, the world sees us in a very specific light.

If we primarily value power, control, superiority, force and might the universe treats us in a very different way.

Our values are revealed by our choices and our choices show who we truly are.

People who truly value the happiness of others and the happiness of the world as a whole are the only ones who ever find true happiness themselves.

True happiness never comes from inflicting misery on others or from gaining from other people's pain. Taking joy in other people's misery is evil and warps and distorts our sense of goodness and all that is wonderful in the world.

Study happy people to learn how to be happy yourself. You will see that truly happy people are never evil, they are guided by goodness, generosity, love, caring and compassion. They continually focus on doing their best and being their best. Love propels their work, their lives, their commitments to others and their happiness.

They live by the highest and best values and beliefs. Their minds and lives are founded and grounded in honesty, virtue, goodness and truth. The universe rewards people who try to do good things well.

People who choose greed, self seeking and malicious manipulation over integrity, compassion and goodness are happiest when they beat somebody. When they don't win they are miserable. They must feel superior to feel good about themselves. This is the path to stress, emptiness and even when it brings material gains, an empty life.

Love propels happiness. Without love and goodness there is no happiness. Look around and see if the wicked seem truly happy to you. Most seem pretty shallow, sad, weak, empty and insecure.

When you do your best your conscience is clear. You do not feel ashamed and you do not worry the truth will be exposed. Choose to live by only the very highest and best values to be truly happy.
