Do not be sad – the fundamentals of happiness
- know that if you do not live within the scope of today, your thoughts will be scattered, your affairs will become confused, and your worrying will increase.
- Forget the past and all that it contained. Being absorbed in things that are gone is sheer lunacy.
- do not be preoccupied with the future. Because the future is in the world of the unseen, do not let it bother you until it comes.
- Do not be shaken by criticism; instead be firm. And know that in proportion to your worth, the level of people’s criticism rises.
- Faith in God and good deeds: these are the ingredients that make up a good and happy life.
- do not expect gratitude from anyone.
- train yourself to be ready and prepared for the worst eventuality.
- perhaps what has happened is in your best interest (though you may not comprehend how that is so)
- you are better off than many others.
- calamities should strengthen your heart and reshape your outlook in a positive sense.
