You do not find a happy life. You make it.
@ProfFeynman Happiness is like a muscle. You don't find it, you work for it.
@ProfFeynman The ONLY way to make & sustain a happy life is by honing skills in pursuits that one feels happy pursuing. The willingness to have the desire to find such skills is embedded in the skill of curiosity that we all get as a free gift at birth. The rest is by measuring our skills PH!
@ProfFeynman this quote is attributed to Camilla Eyring Kimball although she uses "the happy life" not "a".
Too true. It isn’t a ready-made deal you find. It’s more like a fire you’ve got to keep stoking. It comes from grinding it out, choosing to see the ups in the downs, and not just waiting around for good stuff to happen. It’s about taking the raw, messy, real stuff of life and turning it into something that feels right for you. You’ve got to mix it, shape it, sometimes even fight for it. At least for me anyway.
