I came accross this article on my email and I think doing these simple things can take away the complications of the busy lives we live. Only if we can religiously find the time and do the things in the list then probably each one of us has less worries to think about.
Ten Simple Steps to Happiness
SIMPLE SOLUTION:
From a BBC documentary that aired in November of 2005.
1. Plant something and nurture it.
2. Count your blessings - at least five - at the end of each day.
3. Take time to talk - have an hour-long conversation with a loved one each week.
4. Phone a friend whom you have not spoken to for a while and arrange to meet up.
5. Give yourself a treat every day and take the time to really enjoy it.
6. Have a good laugh at least once a day.
7. Get physical - exercise for half an hour three times a week.
8. Smile at and/or say hello to a stranger at least once each day.
9. Cut your TV viewing by half. (Some of us have opted to have no television at all!)
10. Spread some kindness - do a good turn for someone every day.
