Using our best-loved tunes to keep away the blues.

music 2 Does Music Contribute to the Secret of Happiness?

Shakespeare wrote ‘If music be the food of love, play on’, but music isn’t just about love, it can be about a whole range of emotions. We all have favorite pieces of music; songs that we know made us smile things that we sing along to. Different songs make us react in different ways and we all know which songs will bring up the corners of our mouth when we need a boost; which songs will make us dance around the room as if no one is watching. There are times when I am feeling a little low I know I can put on some of my favorite music, and my mood will be lifted as the song plays.  I have to admit that when I listen to Bruce Springsteen I can really start rocking.

Who Are The Happy People and Why?

I am seeing that people really want to know why some people are happy and others aren’t.

I truly believe the answer to that question has a lot to do with ones belief in God.  I am not one that goes around professing to be a Christian, but I do know in my heart there is God and there is our Savior Jesus and because of my baptism I do have the Holy Spirit in me.  I was brought up in a Christian house hold, which I am very grateful for.   I do belong to the church that I was raised in; however I do not go to church every Sunday.  Maybe I should, because I do know that it does make your faith stronger.  The last time I was in a church was when my last grandchild was baptized.  That would be 14 months ago.  I’m bad.

People are Not Happy Because? What is your excuse?

I did an article a while back on “Why some people are not Happy and other people very happy.”

In that article I was trying to point out that money really isn’t the answer to happiness.  I do know that yes, in some ways it sure can help.  Hey, I’m not that dumb, but it sure isn’t what makes one happy day after day, week after week and year after year.

When we have a problem what is the first things we have to figure out?

1.Where the problem is coming from?        solution000008226307XSmall 300x299 People are Not Happy Because? What is your excuse?

Choose to be Happy. Is this what is WRONG with Politicians? There NOT Happy.

I was sitting there last night watching the president talk and I really had to laugh.

These politicians come into the room and are kissing and hugging each other.  What a show.  Now tell me what would happen if you had a room full of college kids that started hugging and kissing each other when they walked to their class room?  When young people go into a class room they go in to learn and get something accomplished.  Isn’t that what politicians are suppose to be doing.  Listening and getting something accomplished.
