Welcome to CC, Harris!

I read the thread title as "feeling happy with the weekend gain". Weight management does tend to be cyclical. ;)
 
“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
I haven't had a weekend off in 2 1/2 years. Interesting quote that you provided. Glad to have you onboard with us. Welcome to CC.
 
“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”
 
“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”

This is so true. Happiness is not something we achieve and dwell there, that is contentment. Happiness is something we pick up as we go through life, like playing with a toddler or puppy.

The meaning of life is something God will reveal to us when we are able to comprehend it. :):cool:(y)

I don't think that is quite the approach to take. Just like memyseldi stated above we can learn to be content doing a job that we don't necessarily love. Not all of us will be able to find work we find interesting and edifying. God's word says all work if profitable. Even failed attempts are useful as lessons.

For contentment's sake any job you find yourself doing, do it well. Remember, God is watching even if no one else is. I think David and Joseph are good examples to show us this. :)(y):cool:
