What makes one's life beautiful and the other one's dull? Could it be resources, blessings, intelligence? Out of the many reasons we may have, here are a few I believe greatly determine the charisma with which we live in life;
LOVE
Being able to give love to those in our lives, whether they are with us temporarily or permanently and being able to receive and enjoy love from those that love us.
CONTENTMENT
Being able to enjoy what we have, not allowing what we do not have to blur the great blessings we already have. Material possessions are never enough for the discontented heart. Instead of living a life of longing for more, a contented heart enjoys what it has.
GRATITUDE
Having an eye for the blessings in our lives, for the beautiful things and dwelling on those. Giving thanks to God in acknowledgement that there is nothing we have that we have not received from Him. Being grateful in all circumstances, painful or good.
SELFLESSNESS
Giving your time and resources to those who need it. Giving yourself up for a cause that will dry a tear and put a smile on a sad face. Being someone's rainbow and support. Few things are more fulfilling than that.

Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things."
