Quotes About Happiness — I’m here today with some #WednesdayWisdom for you! If you’re a regular reader here, firstly, thank you, I’m incredibly grateful; secondly, you probably have noticed I love a good quote. Quotes have the ability to open our minds, inspire us, and sometimes give us just the right amount of motivation we’ve been looking for.

I cannot tell you how many times a bad day has turned around for me just by reading one profound quote, whether that be in the day’s newspaper on my commute home or on social media sometime throughout my day.

And I guess that’s how life works, isn’t it? A helpful message – whether that be from the universe, a higher power, or whatever your belief – has a way of finding you when you need it the most. You just have to be open to receiving it.

So, in the hopes of being that much-needed inspiration to someone out there, I’ve put together 20+ inspiring quotes about happiness.

Why happiness? Well, one thing I know for sure is this…

We are all more similar than we are different when it comes to this one specific thing…we all just want to be happy.  Truly happy, the simple kind of happy, the deep within our souls kind of happy.

I hope to inspire you to find your happiness, to live your best life, and to be kind to those around you along the way.
