How do I choose to see it?

is this a young girl or an old lady?

If you don't enjoy getting up and working
and finishing your work

and sitting down to a meal with family or friends,
then the chances

are you're not going to be happy.
If someone bases his or her
happiness or unhappiness
on major events like a great new job,

huge amounts of money,
a flawlessly happy marriage
or a trip
to Paris,
that person isn't going to be happy much of the time.

If, on the other hand,
happiness depends on a good breakfast,

flowers in the yard,
a drink or a nap,
then we are more likely

to live with quite a bit of happiness.
-Andy Rooney
