Real happiness is not an external force. Real happiness is an internal magnet.
Real happiness is not an external force. Just like jumping into a swimming pool, and merely being surrounded by water, does not quench your thirst.
Real happiness is an internal force. Happiness, like water, must be poured in and reside within you.

Drinking a glass of water is more powerful than jumping into 1000 swimming pools.
