Earning Happiness

on June 29, 2015

Happiness ranks amonghappiness the highest priorities at some stages of our lives.    If we can earn money, can we earn happiness? There was a song about “happiness” by the Canto pop superstar Sam Hui in Hong Kong years ago.  Many of the lyrics still hold true to this day.  The lyrics translate into:

“Happiness is a sunny morning; happiness is wonderful music”

“Happiness is waiting for you if you know how to find it”

“Happiness is star gazing; happiness is footprint on a beach”

“Happiness is for everyone, rich or poor”

“To be contented and tolerant, kind and giving; happiness is always with you”

“Happiness is leaving behind the city’s stress; happiness is soaking in a bath tub”

“Happiness is humming a good tune; a newspaper; a glass of champagne”

“Happiness is support from the spouse; happiness is a kiss from the kids”

After living in US for a little bit, I would add to the lyrics with

“Happiness is visiting a hairdresser when a haircut is overdue”

“Happiness is the freshness after pushing ourselves to exercise”

“Happiness is listening attentively to one conversation than multiple conversations”

“Happiness is focus on one activity than multi-tasking”

If happiness is still hard to find, try “Happiness is” in Google image.  More ways are waiting for you to discover.
