Why we’re here

Posted on November 17, 2010 by Mary Beth Frezon

My creed is that:
Happiness is the only good.
The place to be happy is here.
The time to be happy is now.
The way to be happy is to make others so.
— Robert Ingersoll

    Samuel Pepys, 348 years ago:

    “This day by God’s mercy I am 29 years of age, and like to live and get an estate and if I have a heart to be contented, I think I may reckon myself as happy a man as any is in the world, for which God be praised.”

    This is an excellent creed to live by.
    If we lived that everyday it sure would make for a better world.
