The Way to Happiness

So, I just got an e-mail from my brother, Boy. He wanted to share a recent article he had read on CNNhealth.com. The title of the article is, Study: Experiences make us happier than possessions. Click here for the entire story. Bascially, it states that if you have some extra money to spend then generally you are happier in the long run if you spend the money on an experience rather than a material possession. Why? Because, you can keep getting satisfaction over and over again as you remember the experience but the actual item looses its excitement fast.
All I can say to this is, What are you waiting for? Come on over and lets make some memories. It is scientifically proven to make you happier than buying something material. There are lots of things to do and see here. Just putting it out there. After all, I just want you to be happy!

hehe Becky. Good ploy to get people to come and visit. I really do want to come over there. Mike and I will start saving up. We went to the Draper open house yesterday for the temple. It was very beautiful. We waited for an hour and a half though just to get inside the temple. Never go on a Friday night. We went with Karen and the kids. love, Wu

"To be angry is to yield to the influence of Satan. No one can make us angry. It is our choice. If we desire to have a proper spirit with us at all times, we must choose to refrain from becoming angry. I testify that such is possible."
