The Way To Happiness

“What makes us happy?” Some say protecting the planet. Others mention being healthy and respecting others. It’s these and the rest of the 21 precepts mentioned in The Way to Happiness booklet: thewaytohappiness.org/store/?utm_sou… #HealthyLiving #RespectOthers #TheWayToHappiness #SpreadJoy

5. Honor and Help Your Parents.

5. Honor and Help Your Parents. From a child’s point of view, parents are sometimes hard to understand. There are differences between generations. But truthfully, this is no barrier. When one is weak, it is a temptation… thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

4. Love and Help Children.

4. Love and Help Children. Today’s children will become tomorrow’s civilization. Bringing a child into the world today is a little bit like dropping one into a tiger’s cage. Children can’t handle their environment and they have no real resources. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

3. Don’t Be Promiscuous.

Be faithful to your sexual partner. Unfaithfulness on the part of a sexual partner can heavily reduce one’s survival. History and the newspapers carry floods of instances of the violence of human passions aroused by unfaithfulness. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

2. Be Temperate.

Do not take alcohol to excess. People who take alcohol are not alert. It impairs their ability to react even when it seems to them they are more alert because of it. Alcohol has some medicinal value. It can be grossly overestimated. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

Do not take harmful drugs. People who take drugs do not always see the real world in front of them. They are not really there. On a highway, in casual contact, in a home, they can be very dangerous to you. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

1. Take Care of Yourself

Get rest. Although many times in life one has to work beyond normal sleep periods, a person’s general failure to get proper rest can make him or her a burden to others. Tired people are not alert. They can make mistakes. They have accidents. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

Eat properly. People who do not eat properly are not of much help to you or themselves. They tend to have a low energy level. They are sometimes ill­-tempered. They become ill more easily. It doesn’t require strange diets to eat properly… thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

Preserve your teeth. If one brushed one’s teeth after every meal, it has been said that one would not suffer tooth decay. This, or chewing gum after each meal, goes far toward defending others from oral diseases and bad breath. Suggest to others that they preserve their teeth. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

Keep your body clean. People who do not bathe or wash their hands regularly, can carry germs. They put you at risk. You are well within your rights to insist that people bathe regularly and wash their hands. thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…

Get care when you are ill. When they are ill, even with communicable diseases, people often do not isolate themselves or seek proper treatment. This, as you can easily see, tends to put you at risk. Insist when someone is ill that… thewaytohappiness.org/thewaytohappin…
