For me happiness came from prayer to a kindly God faith in a kindly God love for my fellow man and doing the very best I could every day of my life. I had looked for happiness in fast living but it was not there. I tried to find it in money but it was not there either. But when I placed myself in tune with what I believe to be fundamental truths of life when I began to develop my limited ability to rid my mind of all kinds of tangled thoughts and fill it with zeal and courage and love when I gave myself a chance by treating myself decently and sensibly I began to feel the stimulating warm glow of happiness.
