I am not happy, but I want to be. I work all the time and don't get enough rest for my mind and body. I am bad at jumping to conclusions. When I get something in my mind deep enough I cannot get it out and forget about it. The thought lingers day in and day out. Some thoughts are evil and some moral. Can you advise me on how to cultivate happiness? A. Take charge of your mind; you can do what you will with it. Don't seek happiness as an end in itself, but rather work on mind control. Remember that the happiest person is the one who thinks the happiest thoughts. Every morning when you arise you have two choices: To be happy or to be unhappy. Practice the "as if" principle. Act as if you were happy and all your nature will strive to be as you act, because that is what you deeply desire. -- Perhaps you will find help in our booklet, 12 Step6 to a Happy and Successful Life, which is on its way to you. Anyone wishing a free copy may write to us at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y. 12564. In Prison and Forgotten - Q. I've been locked up in pirison for a year aind haven j t heard or seen any of my family. I wonder if they care how "I'm doing or if I'm still alive. I used to write to them all the time. But it .doesn't do any good. They know where I'm at and why I'm here. I'm 20 years old and incarcerated in an honor camp. What should I do, forget about my family like they are doing me and go live my own life? A. Not at all. Just keep on loving your family and write to them regularly. Let them see (if you can truthfully say so) that you are becoming a more mature and responsible person. Be sure to tell them what your hopes are for the future and how you are preparing for it. Although they may be ashamed and resentful, they are not acting properly in not writing to you or coming to see you: They are showing their hurt. But if you act in a responsible manner the chances are that they will also, in due time. Can't go On Playing House Q. Myliusband and 1 are in our late 30's. It is a second marriage for both. Lately he has been staying out nights, drinking, taking drugs and seeing a married woman. Hie acts like a man I hardly know. Something has to give. I can't go on this way-playing house, having mixed feelings, scared and not knowing if my future will be with him or without him. How could he have turned to someone else when he had someone who loved hjgnas deeply as I did? People tell me I'm crazy, that I should get out. I'm beginning to wonder. If I leave will I ever iegret it? A. The nubbin of youy question and problem is in your words, "How come he has turned to someone else when he had someone who loved him as deeply as I did? Your first step is to ruthlessly analyze any failure or mistake within yourself. If you sincerely find none, then we may assume the problem is with Kim. In any case, you will then have something definite to work on. Do everything possible to discover and correct the barrier to a good relationship. Remember that a happy and successful marriage is not easy and requires patience, "wisdom, perseverance, spiritual insight and determination to make it work. And we believe you can do it.
