Happiness is a frame of mind. It is a state of thinking. It is an attitude, a headset, a mentality. Happiness is a disposition and demeanor. It is a mood and sensibility. It is a philosophy, a notion, a tone, an outlook and perspective. Happiness is all of these things, none of which exist separate from me. They cannot be extracted or stolen because they constitute my very being. Therefore, happiness must be the natural essence of me. Richelle E. Goodrich
About This Quote

The quote, “Happiness is a frame of mind,” is a very powerful statement. It says that happiness is not something we can get or buy. It is not an emotion or a feeling. We cannot experience happiness without being happy.

Happiness is the natural essence of us and it must be our natural state. It will not be given to us by others but we must go out and seek it on our own. The only way we can do this is through gratitude and acceptance.

When we accept that we cannot rely on the world to make us happy and that we must take care of ourselves and find our own happiness, we will begin to find the peace and happiness we seek in life.
