Happiness....
Happiness is something that we all long for but how many of us are actually happy after we have acheived it? I longed for a good job and got the one better than I longed for but still do I feel happy? No, not much. I have now changed the definition of happiness for me. Now I will feel happy after purchasing a nice car.
This way we keep on changing the definitions and thresholds of happiness and keep getting away from happiness actually. My words may seem somewhat odd but if you will think deeply, you will agree to me if not fully then to some extent, at least. We enjoy the joys and happy moments very much but soon we become immune to it, like we gain immunity to fight with the diseases after vaccination.
Happiness is not a vaccine, so do not use it as vaccine please. We shouldn't get immune to it. We must be very sensitive to it. Happiness should come to us as an attack but we shouldn't try to win over this attack. Our minds and hearts should fall prey to the angel of happiness.
Happiness is the aura that enlightens our lives and also of our nears and dears. Happiness should be conceived as a guest that should always be welcomed into our life. Let not the happiness become a permanent member of our house, let it come and go, only then the real pleasure will be experienced.
Also mind the thresholds of happiness,do not allow them to increase, else the dose required to be happy will keep on increasing and simultaneously getting out of reach. Find joy in each and every moment or smile. Always bring a smile on your face to express your happiness so that it passes on to others in our contact.
Don't ever define happiness with money because it may take away the very little joys from our lives. Of course money is an important and significant need of our life directly related to happiness, still let money not be the sole criterien of happiness. If so happens our relationships may suffer and throw us into the ditch of money with no relations or friends at all.
If you lack lot of money, try earning it by right means but do not forget to feel joyful when you see a honeybee sucking nectar from flowers, like you did when you were a child. if you wish not to express this childish happiness on your face, don't express but feel it in your heart.
Feel the happiness through tiny delicate hands of your little child when it touches your cheeks and kisses you. This happiness is beyond the scope of money, it is so precious and divine.
Happiness is not all about gain, happiness is also defined by giving. Pay the school fees of a poor child and the smile on his face will impart you the divine happiness. Donate a blanket to a shivering poor man in winters and the expressions of his face will again show you the light of divine happiness.
If you are away from home and family, just arrange a surprise visit to your family or take them for a vacation, the happiness on the faces of your family members will give you more joy than enjoying a grand lunch alone. Happiness is a feeling, something very qualitative, please do not quantify it otherwiese sensitivities will become resistance. Happiness is something divine, please don't make it an earthly think, let it come from universe, universe that lives in your heart.
Watch the river flowing by and feel happy for God has given us the resources for life, feel the happiness in coziness of sun-rays during the chilling winters.
Feel happy when the birds chirp
feel joyful when the frogs jump
feel happy when the flowers bloom
feel happy when the sun rises
feel happy when the moon comes
feel happy when the child smiles
feel happy when the rain comes
feel happy to be blessed with life
feel happy to be out of tough strifes
Happiness is an innocent emotion and let the innocence be maintained
