Quotes about simple pleasures
How much we enjoy, the most beautiful things, and remembering the moments.
"It's not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness."
— Charles Spurgeon, English Preacher
You can have every gadget, toy, and luxury item that people envy…. yet still be unhappy.
You can have the most wonderful family, career, and hobbies…. yet still be unsatisfied.
It’s not the things themselves that give us happiness, but rather how much we choose to enjoy them. You can choose to enjoy what you have, even if it’s not perfect. That’s the ultimate power — it means you’ll always be happy and satisfied no matter what because you chose to be.
"The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart."
— Helen Keller, American Author and Activist
Food, drink, cars, money, travel, and many other things you can see and touch are great!
But when it comes to happiness, they pale in comparison to feelings.
The feeling you get when you hear the words I love you
The feeling you get when you accomplish a big goal
The feeling you get when you help someone
Feelings are what give life its energy.
"We do not remember days, we remember moments."
— Cesare Pavese, Italian Writer
Life is all about the wonderful moments we remember, so try to make as many great ones as you can. No matter how small, if there’s a chance you might look back on it, be sure to live the moment to the fullest and enjoy it!
