Happiness

The BYU planner offers inspiring thoughts and quotes on most of its pages. One I recently found, which I'm considering to use as my theme for this coming year...one of them at least, right? :)...is this quote below. The reasons why I love it and the words which could explain why I connect so well with it are insufficient...so we'll stick with how the author phrased the thought. Hope it inspires you too. Happy New Year.

Happiness consists not of having, but of being; not of
possessing, but of enjoying. It is the warm glow of a
heart at peace with itself...Man is the creator of his
own happiness; it is the aroma of a life lived in
harmony with high ideals.

- William George Jordan
