1) If you like something, enjoy it.
2) If you dont like a thing avoid it.
3) If you dont like a thing and cannot avoid it, change it.
4) If you dont like a thing can't avoid it, cannot or will not change it, accept it.
5) You accept a thing by changing your attitude towards it.

@ Zantief ~ LOL!
I hadn't thought about that side if the coin!!! :lol: :lol:
Well I guess its down to what type of person you are ~ if you're a morally skewed person (e.g. you like seeing other people suffering etc etc) then I guess your version of Happiness would be radically different from, say, mine. Not to say we're two different people; as I hate vegetables (espec when not cooked to my liking) and I find it too much effort to excercise (especially in the winter) but deep down I know its good for me in the long run, so I should do it ~ I think thats what it boils down to Zantief ~ Knowing what makes you happy and what will lead to you having a happier and fuller life, then trying to stick to that...
