About This Quote

Happiness is a very pretty thing to feel, but very dry to talk about. Some people could be so happy and so cheerful but still they say things like "I don’t know how happy I feel." Now what does this mean? How can you be so happy and not know how happy you feel? The way to happiness is not to talk about it. It’s not to analyze it and compare it and find out why you're unhappy. It's to live it and express it and feel the joy of living the life that you want to live.
