Last night, my husband asked me if I am happy with our life right now. Without hesitation, I said “Yes, I am happy.” As for our source of happiness – first and foremost is our faith in God for it give us strong perspective, hope and a deeper sense of meaning. Happiness is seeing our children grow as well-rounded individuals. Career-wise, our happiness is not measured by the amount of paycheck, but the sense of fulfillment we have found in our respective careers. Choosing gratefulness even with the smallest things makes us truly happy.
