The definition of happiness: when you feel good, proud or satisfied.
To Debi, owner of Let’s Paint in Allendale, happiness is found within oneself, not in material possessions, places or even other people. She believes that you “choose” happiness in your mind, it is not something to “find”. You could have everything you want in life, fame and fortune, but if you lack peace of mind, you will never find happiness.
Being happy isn’t about being a “happy” person all of the time. It is about finding the positive in every situation and making the best out of it.
Feeling happy helps people relax and smile.
Debi has recently visited a third world country where she found the happiest people she has ever met! Amenities we take for granted like water and electricity, was a luxury to them. Residents made their living by making and selling items at local markets, trading their crops for other food items and finding fun in the small things. They didn’t need material things to be happy; they just enjoyed the life they live, minute by minute... hour by hour... dancing, singing, loving every moment! Debi found this to be truly inspiring and lives her days with this at the top of her mind.
We only have one chance at this thing called “Life” and she chooses to be happy and positive during this journey in both her personal and business life.
