Waste no time looking for peace…

If you want to make 2014 the happiest year of your life, all you need to do is to follow the advice of Og Mandino: “Remember that true happiness lies within you.  Waste no time looking for peace, contentment and joy in the world outside.  Remember there is no happiness in having or getting, but only in giving.”  So make it one of your new year’s resolutions to reach out and positively touch those around you–I’m talking about the people you work with, your family and friends, the checkout person at the grocery store, the mail carrier, the customer service person at the dry cleaners and so forth.  Every time you see these people during 2014, say or do something that brightens their day. If you do this on a consistent basis, happiness will follow you wherever you go.  Happy New Year!
