I think I like this quote the best....
"Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling."
Margaret Lee Runbeck

We alway hear...I will be happy when: I land the best job or lose 10 pounds or find the person of my dreams....and so on....

If happiness is so elusive for some...maybe a day without terrible pain or having enough money to fill up your gas tank or sleeping well through one nite....and so on...might be a positive experience/happy? - or maybe not.

“Psychotherapy works by going deep into the brain and its neurons and changing their structure by turning on the right genes. The talking cure works by "talking to neurons," and that an effective psychotherapist or psychoanalyst is a "microsurgeon of the mind" who helps patients make needed alterations in neuronal networks.” Norman Doidge
Thanks for this!
