My message is that happiness is the first principle of life. But you must choose it. We all have pain, but suffering is a choice. You can be happier if you make some changes in your life.

If we could make our house a home, and then make it a sanctuary, I think we could truly find paradise on Earth.

Happiness is the first principle of life. Happiness basically means well-being. It is always good and always a choice... We need to make the choice to be happy in a particular situation, just as it is, and at a given moment.

Being a mother and grandmother is the best of the best in my life. My grandchildren multiply the joy my daughters bring me.
