Is it true that the happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything--they just make the best of everything they have?

Answer by  CarolynOsborne (2804)

Yes. Happiness has a lot more to do with the perspective one takes on life than the material things one owns. This is good news because no other person can take away your right to decide your attitude about anything. Everyone, rich or poor, has the luxury of this decision. Happy people are those who decide to be happy.

Truly being happy is not what you have but who you are. If you are not heppy with yourself then if you have the best or worst stuff wont matter. Because you are still unhappy with your life because you aren't meeting the standards you set yourself as a person.
