Beyond Merely Being: A Guide to Being Happy

by Ronald R. Himebaugh

In America we have Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness. This means "opportunity" to achieve our dreams. The rest of the world does not have this opportunity. Living in the USA you are among less than 5% of the world population. Each day you outlive 6,600 Americans that die from accidents, diseases and medical problems (this excludes death by natural causes or war). If you are 40 years old that is 96 million people you have out survived. We are very lucky, are we not? Do we appreciate it? Are we sitting around letting life pass, complaining about insignificant concerns and treating our privileged circumstances and blessings as "given rights?" Let's get busy living and appreciating our one and only life.
