Be A Happiness Manufacturer


UNHAPPINESS MANUFACTURER
In his bestselling book The Power of Positive Thinking, Norman Vincent Peale describes an experience of his in a railway dining car. He was seated across from a husband and wife, who were strangers to him. The lady was expensively dressed in furs and diamonds.
But she was having a most unpleasant time with herself. She openly criticized everything: the car as being dingy and drafty, the service as being abominable, and the food as being unpalatable. Her husband, who seemed to know his wife rather well, in contrast, was a genial, affable, easy-going and adaptable person. He seemed a bit embarrassed by his wife’s critical attitude and somewhat disappointed too, because they were on a pleasure trip.
In order to change the conversation, the man turned to Peale. Asked what business he was in, he informed him that he was a lawyer. And with a grain, he added, “My wife is in the manufacturing business.”
Peale was surprised because she did not in the least look the type, so he asked, “What does she manufacture?” “Unhappiness,” the man replied, “she manufactures her own unhappiness!’
Are we any different?
Don’t get upset with little jerks in life because life’s like a road and problems are like speed breakers.
They save us from big accidents so enjoy the jerks and move on..

Good Morning. Have A Nice Day and weekend Ahead..
