About This Quote
Happiness is not something you can just have for a short time. It can’t be given to you by someone else. Happiness is something that must be earned. It is something that comes from within, not from events or what other people do or say.
It isn’t something that you can earn by being nice, or by making others around you happy, or by doing things perfectly all the time. Happiness comes from within and it has to be earned day by day.
