Thought of the Day by Democritus: 'Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells...'

Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold; happiness dwells in the soul, is a quote by Democritus, which means that true happiness does not come from money or outward success. It comes from within, in the mind and soul. Qualities like kindness, self-control, and gratitude create lasting joy. When the soul is satisfied, life feels fulfilling despite the circumstances.
