Weather, circumstances & happiness


The world is marked by tragedy. But circumstances should not mold our happiness.

Many people are overwhelmed by what is happening in the world whether earthquakes, famines or the Gulf Oil Spill. The typical attitude is one of the following:

*apathetic optimism – “Oh, don’t worry, it’ll all work out just fine in the end. This is just history and nature doing its thing.”

*alarm and panic – “We’re doomed. There is no hope.”
