Rejoice
-no-
be glad
By Rev. Lee Truman
As nearly as I, a layman,
can understand it, the Con-
stitution only guarantees us°
the pursuit of happiness. We
have to catch up with it our-
selves.
My teenage son feels that
happiness can only be ac-
complished with an automo-
bile, and my daughter feels it
can only be done in a new
dress. Many of my peers feel
that it can be caught with a
frantic, expensive, pathetic
search which only leads to
frustration, disappointment
and despair.
The elusive elixir of life
called happiness is without
very many exceptions re-
lated in some way to every
subject for which a person
seeks help in a minister's of-
fice.
It is no small search, but
few seem to arrive at a mo-
ment in which they can say,
"This is happiness."
A Hollywood actress sing-
ing "I Left My Heart in San
Francisco," added "Tokyo,
Paris, Lisbon, London." The
divorcee looking out her kit-
chen window wondering if
there is any happiness for
her anywhere, is involved in
the same search.
One thing I have dis:
covered in this happiness
search is that for the great-.
est majority of people the
answer is disarmingly
Let -me put it in the form of
' a story. George, a married• .
man, ,was as unhappy a per-
• son as you °could. imagine.
His hotne was paid for, his
health good and his wife
loved him. He had a decent
income and he was totally
miserable.
George had fallen into the
habit of getting up each
morning with his mind made
Up that the day was going to
be miserable, hii neighbor's' •
kids were monsters and the
weather unbearable.
George was using the
negative side .of authentic
religious thought. The posi-
tive side, simply put, is to
begin the day looking for and
expecting the best that the
day has to offer. An expect-
ant approach will make the
difference. Attitude is the
. weight that tips the scales.
We got George's attitude
turned around and he found
that the key was himself. Id
At was not his childish god
that he had long ago out-
• grown, but rather his real
• problem. Changing his atti-
tude changed his whole life.
Children know this. I am'
cavinced that it is not so
much the boundless energy
of youth, or their lack of
responsibility which makes
loved children the source of,
limitless happiness, but
• rather it is their basic atti-
tude toward life.
After I gave a scolding to
my youngest, he said, "Dad,
I did not- come down from
heaven to be yelled at." He
wanted to be happy, and no
grouch of a father was going
to stop him.
I know that I have reached
person in counseling when
he or she can say, "I make
my own unhappineis, don't
I?"
I think the ancient Jew had
this in mind when he wrote in
Psalm- 118:24: "This is the
day the Lord hath made. I
will rejoice and be glad in
it," a verse I repeat often
when the gray starts to close
in.
If you write that sentence
out for yourself and paste,it
on your bathroom mirror,
the instrument panel of your
car''yotir desk, in your wal-
let,it can help you.
I know that this may sound
like foolishness, except I
have found that many of the
most profound things are
simple, and - the simple
things are' profound. "This is
the day the Lord hath made,
and I will Moine and be glad •
in it."
