My take: "...to be happy, joyous and free is to be an optimist. In
fact, if you are not an optimist, you haven’t got it yet."
I don't believe we need to be Christian, Muslim, Buddhist...any religious denomination, in fact...in order to be an optimist or to be happy, joyous and free. I do believe we must have a God of our own understanding which cannot be our intellect or our reasoning mind for there is the hidey-hole of our ego.
I believe we need to be spiritually based with our goal being ego reduction in depth. It is ego, which always legislates for itself, that will inevitably stand between us and freedom, i.e., peace of mind. As "God Calling" so aptly puts it, "Kill self now." Which admittedly turns a lot of people off...but that's just their resistant ego. Here again, ego always legislates for itself; i.e., for our own self-interest.
Thank You.
