Lesson 5

The Secret Of A Happy Life

Life is so dynamic. It is indeed
full of surprises. It is also full of trials
and problems. We can experience a

lot of pain and sometimes, we just wish
and hope that we can have a perfect
life someday.
Well, that’s true. You can never predict

the future. All we can do is try to be
prepared for what will happen. Having
problems and experiencing pain is part of our journey and the challenge of life
to us. It just depends on how you see it, what’s your view on it and how you

deal with it.
For me, the secret of a happy life is simply by having a positive view through
life. Let us think that life is beautiful, wonderful and exciting. Let us make the
most out of everything. Let us put a smile on our face in everything that we do,

in any mood that we have. Let us think that everything in this life has a purpose
and everything happens for a reason. We might not know it from the start but
as we go through life, we can discover it. Most of all, we should let God take
control of our life.
