Start feeling happier now!

SENIOR CITIZENS CORNER - A.M. Dela Serna - Banat

Kasagaran natong mga senior citizen, gumikan lagi sa pangedaron, masulob-on na kaayo, wala nay gana sa bisan unsang butang ning kalibutan. Ang uban, nagpuyo na lang sa balay, wala nay lakaw-lakaw, wala nay ganang magpa-miyembro sa kapunongan sa mga senior citizens, kaylagi, di na gustong mag-socializing. Kapoy na alang kanila. Hinoon, mokalit mag kaabtik inigkobra sa cash assistance gikan sa city hall.

Dili kinahanglan magmasulob-anon ang tawo gumikan sa edad. Mahimo nga magmalipayon gihapon, despite sa mga problema nga gilukdo.  In fairness, hinoon, daghan usab nga mga senior citizen nga happy kaayo ang disposition, mga happy-go-lucky.

Niay gikan na usab sa Yahoo-Internet, ako ning ipaambit ninyo, giulohan “10 Ways to Start Feeling Happier Now.” Appropriate kaayo. Mga happiness tips. Imagine nga nakigsulti ikaw sa imong kaugalingon. Ania:

Embrace yourself. “I try to stay centered in life. When we drag our egos or insecurities around, our output is negative energy. But if we are able to say, 'This is me, this is where I am, and I accept it,' then we're getting somewhere.

 Just keep going. "What motivates me to get out of bed on a bad day is knowing the sooner I get out and on with it, the sooner I can pour myself a glass of wine and climb back in.

Take the initiative to better your situation. "I ask myself, What can I do about this situation? How can I make the best out of this? What lessons can I learn from it?

Keep track of your victories. "At the beginning of the year, I started a happiness jar. Whenever something good happens--no matter how small--I write it down on a scrap of paper and put it in the jar. It's been such a great way to be aware of the good things happening on a daily basis. At the end of the year, I plan to open up the jar and review all of that goodness."

Find inspirational mantras. "I keep a journal of my favorite quotes and write in it all the time whenever I find a new one to add. It keeps me thinking positive."

Reevaluate the way you use your time. "Before, I had a vision of what would make me happy. But then I started to notice the moments that I actually felt happy, and they didn't necessarily jibe with that vision. I balance out the work with an hour of knitting or gardening or yoga-the things I found made me feel the most content, which is really another word for happiness."

Focus on the best in all aspects of life. “Out of this situation only good will come' is my mantra. I know that living a divine life means every breath is a blessing, so I see conflict as opportunity, death as a part of life, uncertainty as certainty, and challenge as a learning opportunity."

 Get in touch with what you desire most. "Being happy isn't about forcing yourself to slap on a smile and do things you don't want to. True peace and happiness comes from being in-tune enough to understand your needs. 

 Give yourself reasons to smile. "I believe with my entire being that there is always something to smile about, something to be grateful for." 

Give the unexpected a positive spin. "When something doesn't go as planned, I grieve the amazing plan that never came to be. Then I think about how boring life would be if it never surprised me. "
