There are numerous benefits of being happy – you will be healthier and have a positive outlook towards life. Here are some ways to bring back the happiness in your life: 6. If you are a working parent, take a break 1. Stop trying to be perfect. Don’t expect perfection from yourself or from anybody. You don’t need to impress people around you and you don’t have to get everything done perfectly. “Nobody in this world is perfect. Iam Nobody”
2. Be happy and satisfied with what you have. Stop comparing with others at every stage, this will infact add to your misery. Be happy and content with your life. Remove the feelings of jealousy and enemity. 3. Schedule some time for yourself. Give yourself one hour each day when you can truly relax and enjoy yourself. Do some exercise, work on a hobby, go for a walk, or read a book. Pamper youself with some massages or beauty therapies. Meditate or pray to God. This will renew your energy and concentration. 4. If you are too stressed at work, take a break and refresh your energy. Go for a holiday with your family and friends. Explore new places. Taking breaks helps your body recover the lost energy. You may take short or long breaks, depending on your work and stress levels. When you get back to work after a break, your concentration and focus improves a great deal and you are more motivated.
from work and spend time with your kids. Or
play with your pets. Visit your relatives and throw a party for them. Dance and sing with them.
7. Be grateful to people around you. Be thankful for even small favours and blessings. 8. Help Others. It has been observed that helping others gives you immense satisfaction and happiness. Make someone’s life more beautiful by contributing in your own small way. 9. Re-assess your priorties. Spend time with your family and pray to God. Stay in the present. Do not waste time regretting your past or worrying about the future. 10. Laugh out loud atleast once in a day and keep smiling. Focus on things that keep you happy instead of those that keep you down. Forget your worries and pains, everybody in this world, has some problems. But it all depends on the way you deal with it.
5. Don’t be alone all the time. Go out with your friends and talk to them on the phone regularly. Watch a movie, go shopping or do things that you always loved but did not get the time because of your busy schedules. Call your friends home and watch a funny movie together.

Flouride (Inday and Dodong) Isang hapon habang nagwawalis si Inday sa tapat ng bahay nila ay nakita sya ni Dodong. Dahan dahang lumalakad si Dodong patungo kay Inday habang nagsasalitang magisa… Dodong: Alam niyo ba ang mortal na kalaban ng ngipin naten? Dodong: Tooth Decay! (Napatigil si Inday sa pagwawalis at napatingin kay Dodong) Dodong: At alam niyo ba.. ang pinaka-effective na panlaban sa tooth decay? (habang umiiwas sa mga imaginary na karatista) Dodong: Fluoride! Nakapamewang si Inday at kinausap si Dodong. Inday: Dodong, how old are you? Dodong: Ahh… beinte-syete na ako. Inday: So I am sure that all of your teeth are fully developed. What’s the use of fluoride if the enamel on your teeth are already developed? Fluoride is only effective in children* since mineralization is still undergoing on their emerging teeth. With fluoride being mixed in the process, the enamel that will coat the teeth will be much harder and resistant to decay. Inday: Besides, what’s the point of informing the public about fluoride if most readily available commercial toothpastes already contain the mineral? Why not just remind people to regularly brush their teeth? Inday: Additionally once you already have tooth decay, no amount of fluoride can help you. What you need is to visit a dentist for a dental filling. Natahimik na lang si Dodong at nag-iisip ng sasabihin.
Dodong: Alam niyo ba ang mortal na kaaway ng fluoride? … Inday! *Note: Not applicable in all instances. Fluoride can
be helpful for people with gum problems (especially receeding gums) since the roots will be exposed to plaque and fluoride can help strengthen the cementum covering the roots.
Nagtratrabaho abroad Nung panahong nag-aaral si Inday sa Oxford, sinubukan nya ring magtrabaho bilang katulong. Inday: I was but a no one, an allusion to an almost nonexistent entity such as a mere speck of dust in this ghastly dwelling of prodigality. Now, I’m led by these insinuations that relentlessly transpire the totality of my personhood to attain full, imbued avengement. It is I, Inday. - Sagot ni Inday sa inaaplayang amo sa UK matapos tanungan ng “Do you understand English?”
Ang pulubi Isang hapon, dumaan na naman ang pulubi sa kanila Inday. Kumakatok ito sa gate at nanghihingi ng makakain. Amo: Inday, bigay mo nga ang tirang pandesal dun sa pulubi sa gate. Inday: Yes madam! Pumunta si Inday sa gate at inabot sa pulubi ang pandesal. Nanonood lang ang amo nya sa may pinto. Inday: Here! Off you go! Tinanggap ng pulubi ang tinapay… Pulubi: Uhh thanks but uhh, maybe you have some bruschetta lying around also
that you can give me. Nagulat ang amo ni Inday sa narinig na request ng pulubi. Inday: No! Besides, it is not proper for mendicants to be indicatrous of preferences. Dumugo ilong ng amo sa narinig na sagot ni Inday. Pulubi: Ok. (malungkot na pagkasabi) May kinuhang garapon na may lamang likodo ang pulubi sa kanyang lumang Crumpler na bag. Binuksan nya ito at sinawsaw ang pandesal sa likido at kinain. Nakita ng amo ni Inday ang ginawa ng pulubi at na curious…
Inday: What are you up to anyway? (sabay lapit sa computer) Angelina: Don’t touch that! I’m playing online Blackjack. I won $6 na. I will be back ok? Lumabas ng kwarto si Angelina para maligo. Dahil hindi pa nakakalaro si Inday ng online casino, sinubukan nyang laruin ang game ni Angelina. Pagkatapos maligo ni Angelina ay naabutan nya si Inday na gumagamit ng computer. Angelina: Yaya!!! What are you doing??! (sigaw ni Angelina)
Amo: Inday, anong ginagawa nya sa tinapay?
Lumapit sya sa computer at napansing meron na syang $829.
Inday: It seems that he’s dipping it in olive oil.
Angelina: Wow yaya! What did you do?
Pulubi: No, it’s extra virgin olive oil.
Tuloy pa rin sa paglalaro si Inday habang inexplain ang kanyang ginawa.
Hinimatay ang amo.
Pagbukas ng pinto ay nakita nyang si Angelina abalang naglalaro sa PC.
Inday: It’s quite simple really iha. I first employed a multilevel Hi-Lo scheme with a side count add-on based on the Zen Count system. But of course, I was utilizing an overall true count methodology to take into account the multiple decks being used. Then I took it up a peg to the Uston Advanced Point Count method and paid particular attention to strategically optimizing my bets using the three-color chip scenario to disguise my wager.
Inday: Angelina, can you cease for a while? It’s time for you to take a bath.
Nawindang si Angelina sa explanation ni Inday.
Hindi sya pinakinggan ni Angelina na patuloy pa rin sa pag-cocomputer.
Angelina: Wow yaya. You’re such a winner!
Blackjack Pinuntahan ni Inday ang malditang alaga na si Angelina sa kanyang kwarto para sabihang maligo na.
Inday: I baked some chocolate cookies for you but you can only have it after you take a bath.
Napa-smile na lang si Inday. (mukhang nagkakasundo na ang dalawa)
Angelina: Whatever yaya! (ngunit napaisip din sya) Ok wait, I will finish this round muna. Ilang saglit ay tumayo si Angelina at kumuha na ng twalya at damit.

Irrational Pisces are as slippery as the fish tha t symbolises their sign. They use do uble-speak and never give a straight answer even if they co uld. They are sly and non-commital.

Never tru st them, they will fain innocence in order to get help from others. They are habit ually lazy and manipulative. A Pisce an will work you to the bone.
