Every once in a while, I find myself wondering where my life is taking me. What has made me happy and why? Am I on track to finding my own happiness? When I'm not forcing it or searching, that's when I find myself happy, content and exhaling with a smile because I'm at peace with who I am, what I'm accomplishing and the people I am surrounded by. One of my most favorite college professors posted this quote today and I just thought I would share this little bit of wisdom with you. Maybe it will give you a little push in the right direction, or affirmation that you're on your way to reaching your true happy place.
"Those
only are happy who have their minds fixed on some object other than
their own happiness: on the happiness of others, on the improvement of
mankind, even on some art or pursuit followed not as a means, but as
itself an ideal end. Aiming at something else, they find happiness by
the way."
