Happiness Doesn't Always Come From

As A Buddhist, I View Death As A Normal Process, A Reality That I Accept Will Occur As Long As I Remain In This Earthly Existence. Knowing That I Cannot Escape It, I See No Point In Worrying About It. I Tend To Think Of Death As Being Like Changing Your Clothes When They Are Old And Worn Out, Rather Than As Some Final End. Yet Death Is Unpredictable: We Do Not Know When Or How It Will Take Place. So It Is Only Sensible To Take Certain Precautions Before It Actually Happens.

It Is Important To Have Determination And Optimism And Patience. If You Lack Patience, Even When You Face Some Small Obstacle, You Lose Courage. There Is A Tibetan Saying, "even If You Have Failed At Something Nine Times, You Have Still Given It Effort Nine Times." I Think That's Important. Use Your Brain To Analyze The Situation. Do Not Rush Through It, But Think. Once You Decide What To Do About That Obstacle, Then There's A Possibility That You Will Achieve Your Goal.

Under No Circumstances Should You Lose Hope.

I Want To Say, Without Hesitation, The Purpose Of Our Life Is Happiness.
