Actual Happiness!



"Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy."

This is the definition of happiness. Very complicated,right?

Well, in simple words, Happiness is when you have peace of mind. When you are happy from inside.

One of my friend sent this message to me few days back which really touched my heart.

If you have a family that loves you, a few good friends, food on your table and a roof on your head, You are Happier than you think.

Many people now-a-days, consider Money as the primary source of happiness. They think that money can buy everything. Even Happiness!

They think that they can buy a PS4 which will make their child happy. But, whom will he play with? Whom will he shout at? Whom will enjoy his win with?

Thus, happiness in not in electronics goods or things bought. Happiness is enjoying those things with a friend or companion.

They think that by buying their child cake pieces everyday makes him happy. But,

Whom will he tease while eating his cake? Whom will he share his cake with?

Remember people, the value of happiness increases when it is shared with others.

A single person can never be happy.

Happiness is not when you play with your PS2. Happiness is when you play along with your friends or brothers. When you can enjoy with them. When you can tease them when you win.

Happiness is not a bar of chocolate. HAppiness is when you share that chocolate with your friends. When you tease them by showing the chocolate. And when they run behind you to snatch your chocolate.

Watching a World Cup FIFA match is not what is happiness. Happiness is when you watch it with your cousins and brothers and family. Happiness is when you cheer together for the country you support. When in a crucial moment, Messi scores a goal and you jump and dance with your brother.

Money is the root cause of all evils. Happiness never stays for long time where money drives it. Happiness stays as long as money is not involved with it.

In the past, parents with 5 children used to live in a single hut. Still, they had peace and harmony. Now people have big houses with only 1-2 children with garden and pool and all facilities available to them. They still don't feel that happiness.

Happiness can never be purchased. It can only be felt.

So people, always be happy and keep smiling.
