Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.

Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions.
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.
The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.
The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters.
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.

The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.
