Corner View # 16 – Best Kept Secret.

Corner View this week is “Best Kept Secret”  Well it won’t be anymore after this post!!!

So the Diplomat/Ambassador in me wants to share my home country of Papua New Guinea because it really is a land of the unexpected.  With over 700 different tribes with as many languages it is a unique place.  And to me is the “Best Kept Secret”.

But for today and for this corner view I want to share something I learnt so long ago and to me really is a “best kept secret”.

And so here it is -

The best kept secret to being happy ………

Being Content.  Contentment.

No matter what, no matter where – if you are content, your happy.

And who doesn’t want to be happy?

For more secrets visit Jane.

I’m having fun with Corner View but now it’s time for a break. 

But only a break from Corner View but not a break from visiting all you wonderful people who participate in Corner View.  I’ll still be around.

Looking forward to September!!

Contentment. A life key I think. Lovely post and lovely blog! Thanks for your comment on my blog! And interesting that you are from Papua New Guinea. My husband's cousin has been a missionary in the PNG highlands for many, many years.
