You Really Can't Buy Happiness

March 4, 2013

You cannot buy your happiness, 
'Cause happiness is free. 
Don't you know, or can't you guess, 
It's there for you and me. 
And what you do with what you've got, 
Can change the way you feel. 
Just do your best and smile a lot, 
You'll keep an even keel. 
'Cause happiness is made for YOU, 
Just take a bite and see 
That happiness is what you do 
With something that is free.

    Happiness is free, but in order to get it, you have to trade your troubles away.

     The principles of resource allocation can help people attain happiness at home.. That's true in life too: If you're not guided by a clear sense of purpose..

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.
