1 What does Happiness Depend on

True happiness is:
1) Doing what your morals tell you to do
2) Doing things in line with truth or eternal laws
3) Doing something that you feel helps other people and thinking about their problems
4) Doing better than you have in the past
5) Doing something you feel makes up for past mistakes
6) Make goals and planning them out or working towards them
7) Having realistically low enough expectations of self and others and life events
8) Forgiving others for making mistakes and allowing them to do so
9) Loving other people, making time for and spending time with those you love
10) Choosing to see meaning (or humor) in unwanted events
11) Looking for good in anything that happens to you and others you love
12) Feeling loved and protected by someone (namely God)
13) Remembering and thinking about yours or other's happy events
14) Enjoying little pleasures that you think are a reward for good efforts
15) Recognizing, watching, and contemplating the beauty or simplicities in life
16) Keeping balanced including exercise, study, faith, prayer, laughter, and smiling
17) Remember the good Past while Living in the Present while Planning for the Future
18) Taking frequent but very brief time to eat, dance, fish, read, sew, paint or anything to escape
Just ask any Mormon.
