And, so, today, let us look at this [[concept]] of [[happiness]]. Many of you [[work]] through [[trials]], through many [[experiences]], where [[growth]] is the outcome, and often times there is an [[atmosphere]] that [[surrounds]] you where you wonder if [[happiness]] will ever again be available to you. I would like each of you to take a few minutes to [[think]] about what happiness is. How can it be [[measured]]? What does it mean? And if you would then [[share]] with one another this [[concept]], we can further speak about this. Please take a few minutes."

K3: "A few weeks ago Daniel [[spoke]] about walking in [[Thought Adjuster|the Spirit of the Father]]. To me, after rer[[eading]] that paper, [that] is happiness; [[happiness]] in knowing that [[the Father]] is with you; happiness in knowing that He loves you; [[happiness]] in knowing that you can [[share]] with your fellowman and with those that you can't see, those around you, knowing that you can have and [[nurture]] your fellowman. I think to me that [[represents]] [[happiness]]."

T4: "I guess to me [[happiness]] is when you have struggled for so long to find something, or when you have some [[problem]] that you have to work out or that you have to help someone through, finding suddenly, or [[gradually]], a [[peace]] within you. That you know that, no matter what, you're going to be okay with you and that, even though [[things]] look so bad, perhaps, in the end, [[everything]] will always be okay. I guess to me, as well, it is finding a [[freedom]]. For me going up in the [[mountains]] and seeing all the free things, all of the animals, for me that is [[happiness]]; just seeing the [[joy]] in an animal's face; or when you pet it; or when you feed it; or being up in the [[mountains]] and seeing a [[sunset]] and finding within you from that sunset, or from that [[smile]] in their eyes, a very specific [[peace]] and [[happiness]] within yourself."

P4: "I think little things are what make me [[happy]]. Not only knowing the [[gifts]] of [[God]] that are there for us to partake of, but the little [[things]] in life, just this [[beautiful]] world that we live in. I like my [[quiet]] walks, a child at [[play]], just a flower [[garden]]. Just the [[simple]] [[things]] in [[life]] make me [[happy]]. I think I find them each day. You people make me happy. I'm [[happy]] to be a part of this [[group]]. One other thing, Daniel, you make me happy too. I'm happy that you have come into our lives."

Daniel: "Thank you, my dear, thank all of you, for being able to share. I realize that this is not easy for many of you. The more you are willing to open up, the more you will find [[growth]] and the more you will be able to [[feel]] that inner [[confidence]], that inner [[strength]], that is part of your [[natures]]. And let me say that, indeed, I am brought to much [[happiness]] by all of you as well.
