HAPPINESS?!

Most people I know are searching for happiness or pretending to be deliriously happy just so that they can take comfort in that illusion. None of them can define what exactly it is nor can describe a definite path to it. I mostly think happiness for most people means something that keeps them going through the routine of life which might not give them joy.

I like to think I am a happy person. I do manage to enjoy most of my life. I derive joy from unexpected things in life. Sometimes I feel very happy when I am by myself maybe walking down the street or sitting in the room reading a book or dancing like there is no tomorrow. And then comes the other times when I think I cannot be happy without company that is my friends and family. My happiness basically depends on my whimsical mind. Happiness is a state of mind. It is the position from which we do not judge, for we cannot. It is the satisfaction of knowing we continue to exist among other people, animals, things, time and places, and that even after we may cease to exist, we are remembered forever as our energy and action resound and ripple through time and space.

Basically I have learnt to go with the flow and enjoy the feelings of joy and to bear the feelings of sorrow instead of asking deep philosophical questions that lead to further questions that cannot be answered thereby leaving you frustrated. So, be happy! after all you have only one life! :-)
