6．Most people want to be happy，but few know how to find happiness．Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness．Aristotle，a Greek philosopher，said，"Happiness depends on ourselves．"In other words，we make our own happiness by ourselves．Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier．
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life．Too often，if we spend too much time thinking about the future，for example，getting into college or getting a good job，we fail to enjoy the present．You should enjoy life's simple pleasures，such as reading a good book，listening to your favorite music，or spending time with close friends．People who have several close friends tend to live a happier and healthier lives．
Another secret of leading a happy life is to be active and have hobbies．They can help you forget your problems and lose track of time．Many people experience this by dancing，or playing a sport，such as snowboarding or soccer．You can forget about problems，and only think about the activity．
Finally，many people find happiness in helping others．According to studies，people feel good when they volunteer their time to help others．If you want to feel happier，do something nice for someone．You can help a friend with his or her studies，go shopping to buy food for an elderly relative，or simply help around the house by washing the dishes．（245）
