so dass der Vorrat für ein Jahr reicht. 
Jeder Tag wird einzeln angerichtet aus
1 Teil Arbeit und 
2 Teilen Frohsinn und Humor. 
Man füge 3 gehäufte Esslöffel Optimismus hinzu, 1 Teelöffel Toleranz,

May the sun bring you new energy by day, 
may the moon softly restore you by night, 
may the rain wash away your worries, 
may the breeze blow new strength into your being, 
may you walk through the world, 
and know its beauty all the days of your life.

When the door of happiness closes, 
another opens 
but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don’t see the one 
which has been opened for us.

True happiness isn't about the things you have. It's about the thoughts you have. 
That's why it's called 
positive THINKING not positive THING-ING."
