    the most wasted day of all is in which we have not laughed,

    the most worned out day is in which you have done nothing.

    to be the happiest, learn to appreciate what you have & can have.

    to be miserable, is to always want what you can never ever have.

    For me personally the Happiest way to be happy is to be able to see little things in life, if i can see the smile or songs on the lips of people working in places which society consider low (in sense of money) then i am happy, for it makes me feel good that people enjoy life and so can i.

    And, the saddest way to be sad is to look in the eyes of beggar and realize the helplessness they are suffering and that makes me sad not because i am a social worker but because somehow they make me remember the times and situation i have been totally helpless..

    My Nanna used to say "Count your blessings". I reckon simply enjoy what's to enjoy in the moment. The saddest way to be sad is to yearn for the unobtainable. There's a lot of that about. It's the consumer economy, and the other delusions we're taught to swallow. Clutching what saddens is like rubbing your nose against a rough-barked tree. It will fill your mind. But if you step back, whilst the tree remains, now you can admire the whole forest. Happiness and sadness work the same way.

    The happiest way to be happy is doing what you like best and hangin out with your friends and if don't have any f the world and make some go out and party. The saddest way to be sad is feeling pity for yourself

  • The happiest way to be happy would be, helping those that are less fortunate then we are. The saddest would be when there is so little that you can do when no one is interested in giving you a helping hand, that what you feel at that moment is very, very, sad, and angry.

    Love.

    When it goes right it's the happiest happy & when it goes wrong it's the saddest sad.

    Love yourself. That's the best way to be happy.

    Hating yourself is guaranteed sorrow.

    To be ignorant.

    Not knowing the bad things keeps you happy. But you are unhappy because of all the things you don't know or don't understand.

    There is no WAY to happiness. Just realize that you are already happy.

    Making movies.

    Not making movies.

    I am assuming, of course, that you mean on our own personal

    level. After all, we can't speak for anyone else.
