If You Would Be Happy: Cultivate Your Life Like a Garden

Ruth Stout

Simple-living advocate Ruth Stout, author of Gardening Without Work, believed that life just doesn’t have to be so hard! In If You Would Be Happy, she once again helps you find the sense (and humor) amid all the nonsense that life offers, and find simplicity amid the complex rough and tumble of life.

She says: It is happiness, not perfection, we’re concerned with here, and they’re not necessarily even related.
Our activities are successful insofar as they are giving us real satisfaction.
Any experience, trivial or important, is likely to give us more pleasure if we are interested, unhurried, and are looking for the best the situation has to offer. It also helps if we expect something good, for in that case we don’t overlook it if it’s there in front of us.
We must forever keep in mind that it is our inside feelings we are aiming to change; we are really going to become a serene and pleasant person, not merely give the appearance of one.

If You Would Be Happy is volume 3 of our Ruth Stout Classics series. For the rest of the series, visit http: //www.nortoncreekpress.com.
