Happiness within us...

Happiness cannot be bought. It is a state of being.Yes, we can lavish ourselves with all sorts of goodies to make us look and feel fabulous, but like bedding, pull back all the elaborate covers and there's just the basics.

 
 
 
 
Last week while in Bali I saw lots of the basics, but the thing that struck me was how incredibly happy all the people were.They were proud of their family and place in life, they were extremely proud of their culture and sharing it with us and they showed happines and pride in their jobs....something that is often lacking in Australia.
 
 
 
Maybe we need to assess our lives, throw out some of the clutter and baggage? Find happiness in the things that really matter, not just the material lifestyle that is thrust in our faces daily via print and electronic media? Food for thought.
Have a lovely Sunday. Andrina x
