ESSENTIAL HAPPINESS

The three grand essentials to happiness in life are:  something to do, something to love and something to hope for.

Quote by Joseph Addison

Joseph Addison, (born May 1, 1672, Milston, Wiltshire, England—died June 17, 1719, London), English essayist, poet, and dramatist, who, with Richard Steele, was a leading contributor to and guiding spirit of the periodicals The Tatler and The Spectator. His writing skill led to his holding important posts in government while the Whigs were in power.

REFLECTION:

  • Do you have all three grand essentials in your life?
  • If one (or more) is lacking, what can you do to cultivate more happiness into your life?
