HAPPY LIFE

BY JOANNA DE ANGELIS/DIVALDO FRANCO

© PREPARED BY JUSSARA KORNGOLD-2017


Greet your day with a
prayer of gratitude.

You are alive.

While there is life, the


opportunities to grow
and to be happy
multiply.
Each day is a new
blessing from God, a
proof of His love to you.
As the hours pass,
cultivate optimism and
well being. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 1
Consider work the
best way to progress.

Those who do not


work are morally and
spiritually paralyzed.

The person who is not


devoted to the
liberating action of
work becomes a drag
on the economy and
society.

Work is life. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 2
Drench your mind in study
as much as possible.
Study frees the mind from
ignorance and develops
discernment.

Study and work are the


wings that further
evolution.
Knowledge is the message
of life.
Learning is not limited to
the classroom.
Life itself is an open book
that teaches those willing
to learn. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 3
Patience is a virtue
which will help you
acquire the goods of
the body, soul, and
society.

It teaches us how to
wait when we cannot
immediately get what
we want.

Never be irritated.
Patience will help you
overcome everything.
From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 4
Grant your fellow
beings the same rights
and favors that you
expect from them.
Selfishness is an illness
that poisons the soul.
The friend at your side
yearns for the same
spaces to live in as you
do.
Remember not to deny
him the opportunity.
Learn to share what is
yours. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 5
When in doubt, go with
the attitude that is least
harmful to your
neighbor and yourself.

Avoid taking risks and


ruining other people.

Act with serenity, sure in


the knowledge that your
gesture will resonate
with others, in
accordance with the
emotion and content it
is imbued with.

From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 6
Do not be too
ambitious.

Do not let your reach


exceed your grasp, tells
a popular saying.

Exaggerated ambition
maddens when it does
not make unhappy
before.

Fight for what is


necessary, sharing
what you do not need,
which is certainly
needed by others.
From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 7
Always live in peace.
A clear conscience
without remorse for
past acts or fear of
the future creates
harmony.

Nothing from outside


can disturb a tranquil
heart, which beats to
the rhythm of duty
honestly done.

Peace is worth
whatever you must
do to achieve it.
From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 8
Keep emotional
control under all
circumstances.
An unbalanced
nervous system
means an
unbalanced life.

If difficulties
threaten your
balance, utilize
prayer.
Prayer is effective
medicine for all the
illnesses of the soul. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 9
Organize your agenda
to save time
effectively.

Every task should be


carried out at the right
moment.

Confusion in carrying
out tasks effects not
only their organization
but also their quality.

One after another,


calmly and continually,
fulfill your duties.
From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 10
Be everyone’s friend.
Friendship is a treasure of the
spirit to be shared with others.
Like the sun, it radiates
happiness to all who receive it.

There is an immense shortage


of friends on earth and this
causes conflicts and suspicions,
imbalance and insecurity.

When friendship is lacking, the


person is at risk.
Be the kind friend, even if, for
the time being, you experience
misunderstanding and
difficulties. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 11
Never repay evil with
vengeance or negativity.
The bad person is sick and
does not yet know it.
Give him the remedy that
will heal him. Do not use
against him the weapons he
uses against you.
If someone offends you, the
problem is his.
When you offend someone
the problem is now yours.
The offender is always the
unhappier one.
Be aware of this and go
calmly on your way. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 12
Always rely on divine assistance.
When you feel yourself besieged,
without any chance of release,
help will arrive from god.
Never doubt the fatherhood of
God.
God looks after you, and helps
you, not always as you might like,
but in the best way possible for
your real happiness.
At times you have the impression
that divine help will not come or
will arrive too late.
After the crucial moment, if you
have persevered in waiting for it,
you will find that help came a few
moments before. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 13
Use every opportunity to act in
an elevated manner.
Some people wait for
extraordinary moments and
special occasions which may
never come.
It is not what you do that makes
you great or important. It is how
you do each thing that will
transform you.
Giant oaks from tiny acorns
grow.
The cosmos is the result of
invisible particles and molecules.
Be great in small things and you
will not be small in the great
ones. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 14
“Only wolves fall into wolf
traps,” teaches the gospel of
Jesus.
Thus, you will never subject
yourself to the thorns of
humiliation or dishonor when
attacked or mistreated.
You are what you really are
inside yourself, not what you
are accused of being.
You will not be better because
you are praised or worse
because you are attacked.

Honorable and discreet,


always be yourself, in search
of inner refinement. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 15
Replace bad words with good ones
in your vocabulary.
While vulgar and low expressions
may be in fashion, they poison the
heart.

Words are life’s instrument for


communication and understanding,
not weapons for aggression
violence or vulgarity.

The irregular use of words corrupts


the mind and abases the human
being.

Language expresses the moral


quality of the individual.
Just because there are those who
speak well but are bad, it is not a
reason for someone who is good to
let themselves appear to be bad.
From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 16
Keep your thoughts attuned
with health and optimism.
The mind is a powerful dynamo.
As you think, so will you attract
equivalent vibratory responses.
Those who cultivate illness
attract illness.
Those who preserve their health
always recover from illness.

Think right and you will be


inspired by God to find the best
solutions
An edifying thought is a prayer
without words which is always
heard. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 17
Constant revolt unbalances
the mind, body and soul.
It is not the flesh that is
weak, but rather the spirit
that remains rebellious.
Control your energies. Do
not let them undo you.
Rebelliousness is toxic and
expels poisons that repel
everyone.
The rebellious person
inspires neither friendship
nor compassion.
Always be calm.
The solution that has not
yet arrived is on its way. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 18
Tolerate your neighbor’s
failings and do not place them
in the gossip mill.
We all make mistakes.
Wise are those who learn to
act decently from their
mistakes.
When someone is down, give
him your hand. Do not criticize
him.
Nobody falls because they
want to. If they do., the culprit
is ignorance, a cruel enemy of
humankind.
Even so, the one who has
fallen deserves help, not a
reprimand. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 19
Avoid wrong-doings.
Allow yourself to make
mistakes, but commit to
correcting them.
Bitterness, rage, and violence
must give way to happiness,
goodness, and peace.
You reincarnated to grow and
be happy.
Abandon the highways of
emotional bondage and climb
the steps that will carry you to
victory over yourself.
Whoever does not tame his
bad inclinations becomes the
victim of the disorder they
provoke. From the book “Happy Life” by Joanna de Angelis through Divaldo Franco, item 20
