True Happiness Quotes

True happiness comes only by making others happy—the practical application of the Savior’s doctrine of losing one’s life to gain it. In short, the Christmas spirit is the Christ spirit, that makes our hearts glow in brotherly love and friendship and prompts us to kind deeds of service.

Realise that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside.
