Antique History Books - Happiness Now A Science - Religion and Spirituality Article

By:Derek Dashwood

Antique History Books have told us so much about the wisdom of the ancients. When advice has been given on how to reach a state of bliss or happiness, every faith has had the way unique to it, and the followers who follow the acceptance of their ancestors.

What is the road to bliss? And then eternal salvation? Each faith has developed an answer as it interprets the Jewish Old Testament Bible, the Christian Bible, The Koran, the words of Buddha, or any other ancient or modern healers.

But modern science has taken the measure of people who live the longest and report greatest sense of happiness and living a satisfying life. These are the common attributes that University of California researchers found among these people.

1. -COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
2. -PRACTICE ACTS OF KINDNESS
3. -SAVOR THE JOYS OF LIFE
4. -THANK A MENTOR
5. -LEARN TO FORGIVE
6. -INVEST TIME AND ENERGY IN FRIENDS AND FAMILY
7. -TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY
8. -DEVELOP STRATEGIES TO COPE: STRESS AND HARDSHIPS.

We feel this is so important that we should incorporate this into our heart and soul. And how can we do that? The same way that medical students memorize all the bones of the foot, for example, by breaking them down into an acronym, that is the first letter of each bone, or ventricle through the heart.

So, what we get first off from this deep wisdom are the existing initials as we see. If Count your Blessings is C, then we have:CPST, calling LITD.

If you can find some other word in each category that links you deeper and in a more immediate way by all your favorite relatives and you can make that work, then do that.

Another way is to read each word out loud, and write it down, and repeat it so much it becomes a part of you. Or we turn the page after nodding at such good advice and forget it while we get busy in our lives.

And if we take the key word first letter, we may have Blessings, Kindness, Savor, Thank, Forgive, Friends/Family,Care,Cope: BKST, FFCC.

Many other studies have confirmed on these findings, and add that often these people report a belief in God and attend to many charitable events and are active for their ages. They are positive in attitude and quicker to search for a solution than complain about a situation that with effort could be made better.

Otherwise, it can become easy as as Piglet and Pooh.
CPST,or BKST, Pooh. LITD, or FFCC, Piglet. Be happy.
