或許你會說，昨天是一個不愉快的日子，因為你與朋友之間產生了誤會。難道說那天就沒有快樂和平和之時嗎？現在想想看，昨天你是否收到了老朋友的來信？是否有陌生人問你：這麼漂亮的髮型在哪裡剪的？你只想著今天是倒霉的一天，卻忽略了發生美好事情的某些瞬間。
幸福像一位遊客。你不能掌控她的出沒，只能欣賞她出現時的倩影。你無力迫使幸福出現——而當幸福來臨時，你一定會感覺得到。
幸福是一種態度，而非一種狀態。在清洗百葉窗簾時欣賞詠歎調，花費一些時間整理壁櫥，這些都是幸福；與家人共進晚餐，也是一種幸福。幸福就在此刻，而非在「有一天……」這種遙遠的允諾中。若我們能熱愛自己的生活，該多幸運啊，那樣我們就能經歷更多快樂和幸福!
幸福是一種選擇，要把握時機，抓住她！
