Happiness and Our Lives..!

why can't we live without being attached to someone.. ? Why can't we just move on without the need for love from something or someone to live this 'thing' called life.. We all aim for success.. good things.. happiness.. But, may be the hard to digest truth is that life is a mixture of both successes and failures.. both good and bad things .. both happy and sad events.. But, we get disappointed , when we face a failure in something, when something bad happens in our lives, when some event which makes us sad takes place.. It is only because our only expectations are the good things to take place without a single failure..

May be failures , bad things and sadness are three things that go together.. Because, when there is a failure or a bad event, the end result is that our mind drifts down to sadness..

But, we must realize that success,good things and happiness are not always entwined together..

If happiness is the outcrop .. And, if we would believe that it could only be reached by achieving success and only and only by the taking place of the so called good things in life.. Then we are not really on the right track of thinking..!

Yes, happiness is something not to be searched for. But, to be realized within. It is within all of us. With a flick of our thoughts we could achieve happiness..

It is simply up to us to realize the best part about our lives.. It is like realizing how lucky we are to have a safe home to live. Have good clothes to wear everyday. Have good food to eat at all three meals.. Have parents, friends, relatives, children & our loved ones that have a part in our lives. How we are blessed with education. Our job. May be the trips that we are able to make. It may seem like that we are talking about the very basic things of life. One might ask "What is so noticeable in it ?.. What is so important about it for us to be happy.."

But, have a look.. just around you.. Not everyone is blessed with such relationships around them.. Our parents still live with us, our good friends, our kids, our loved ones.. You are so blessed if you have them around you..

Home sweet home.. if you really have a shelter to live in. That too with an environment so safe. Then you are one lucky person! Imagine if war taking place near your home every time. And, you hold on to life thinking whether the ending would be now or then.. Fear what would happen to your kids, loved ones.. So think back.. Do you have a home with a safe environment.. you are blessed!

Not everyone in this world have clean and healthy food for all three meals. Not everyone has good clothes to wear all the time. Not everyone everyday enjoy life the way we do , going for shopping, trips, partying.. All that are sometimes not meant for everyone.. Do think about world's poorest countries..How those kids suffer.. Surely we all do have a picture inside our eyes when the sentence.. '3rd world countries' are mentioned.. Just think about them.. Don't you think you are so blessed to be where you are.. and WHO you are of course!

Just think a minute.. Happiness is inside us. It is simply up to us to take it out and make ourselves get surrounded by it..

It may seem a difficult thought at the beginning.. One good way is to Thank The Almighty every night before sleep for all the good things he has blessed you with during that whole day.. After sometime of continuing You surely would start feeling how blessed you are with life..

Now we are all lucky, blessed and happy we can look at life with those happy eyes.. And, just when something goes wrong.. It doesn't mean it's the end.. Think about this.. life is meant to be a mixture of all sort of events.. Life is never perfect. Think about a life where there isn't a single failure.. single bad thing.. Life would be too monotonous.. It would be too boring then.. So every time you face a challenge.. come across a failure remember it's natural.. And, life doesn't end there.. Life is about proving that you CAN.. Someway or the Other..

Life is about realizing the happiness within.. Spreading it everywhere you go..

And, never leave your eyes off your goals. They are meant to be achieved! Stay blessed! :)
