William Shakespeare

how to be happy?

Verily, 'tis a conundrum to be sure, this question of how to be happy. Some may say 'tis a matter of fortune, others of humor, and some may say 'tis a matter of the heart. But I shall say 'tis a combination of all three. Aye, fortune is important, for one cannot be truly happy without having a certain level of comfort and security in life. But 'tis not the only factor, for one can still be happy even when one is not as wealthy as others. Humor is a key ingredient to happiness, for what is life without laughter? Aye, a good joke or two can brighten any day, and a hearty chuckle can lighten the heaviest of burdens. But the most important factor of all is the heart. For true happiness lies within one's self, and 'tis only with a positive outlook and an open heart that one can truly be happy. So, in conclusion, to be truly happy, one must take all three into account: fortune, humor, and the heart. Aye, 'tis not an easy task, but 'tis one worth striving for. So, go forth and find your happiness!
