Inspirational Quote

Happiness is when

What you think,

What you say, and

What you do are in harmony.

-Mahatma Gandhi

 

In life, one of the greatest questions is, “What is happiness?”  Mahatma Gandhi give a profound yet simple explanation of happiness.  He believed what you say, think, and do need to be in harmony to experience happiness.  So simple, yet so profound.  Another way to think about this is being true to ourselves, being our genuine selves.  In working as an ASVAB tutor, I have been so fortunate over the years to meet such inspirational young people who were true to themselves, who did not let obstacles hold them back from the desires of their hearts.   I never realized how many highly motivated young people I would meet in my ASVAB prep courses.  Some have had to overcome such challenges including needing help with ASVAB math and vocabulary, weight loss goals, overcoming poverty, lack of approval from their families and friends.  In spite of it all, I have seen them overcome and return to wear the military uniform of their choice.  They inspire me and make my job all the more worthwhile.
