I have to say I really enjoy MFP because most everyone here is transforming their life in one way or another. People in flux like that seem to be happier people. So all my happy friends I have a curious question:

What do you think is the secret to living a happy life?

    Teaching yourself not to worry so much about how successful you become, but by how happy you are. Always strive for self-happiness and you won't regret anything in your life.

    To know, love, and serve God (sorry, nothing clever or funny about my answer).

    I like your crazy TK.

    And to answer the original question: as other said "42" (and communication).

    Celery when you are starving and out of calories.

    After waiting tables for 13 years, and observing human behavior closely, I have come to these conclusions:

    Happy people ALWAYS,

    --are nice to their families
    --are nice to strangers
    --eat dessert

    Happy people SOMETIMES,
    --are fit and healthy
    --have lots of money

    So, therefore, I believe the keys to happiness are to be nice to people, try to be healthy and live within your means, and eat approx. 42 sweet things a month.
