The secrets of happiness
Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future for example, getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends.
Another secret to leading a happy life is to be active and have hobbies where you forget your problems. Many people experience this through dancing or playing a sport, such as skating or playing soccer. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they volunteer their time to help others. You can help a friend with his or her lessons, go shopping to buy food for your family members, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
