Looking for happiness..???

It is not uncommon in our common world to find out the people who are not happy. Why?

´I have a good job, beautiful wife, a lovely daughter, but I dont have peace of mind!´ These were the words of a man, who seems to be very successfull in his life. My original thought was that he must be very happy person. But he was not like many others who seems that they are happy but they are not.

She was about 60 years old lady, married twice, living in Sweden. She had a very beautiful house, just in front of the deep waters of the sea. She was an artist and was living in an ideal neighbourhood. But, she was planning to move to any Asian country. Why? You may be surprised to know that, in search of happiness!

He was a youngman of 29, doing a very nice job in a modern city and enjoying his life with his beautiful girl friend. Smile on his lips was a permanent part of his personality. One day, he tried to cut his throat, he tried to commit suicide. But, thanks to his lucky stars, he survived. Why he committed suicide? Again, he was not happy! He was not sattisfied from his life!

Now, I would like to talk about myself. I dont say whether I am happy or not but I would say that I could not and can not understand why we dont find happiness in the life? What is the secret of the happiness? In the search of happiness, I would like you to go with me because I want to see the true smiles on your lips. So, we have to find out the secret of happiness, which is ultimate goal of our all efforts. Do you also like to do this?

Happiness is a state of mind. It is our internal feeling. But, what we do? We try to find it out in external objects. We try to buy it with money. We see it in the beautiful face of our soulmate. We try to find it in the faces of our children and what is the result? Are we happy?

The easiest method to be happy is to happy with your circumstances. If we want to embrace real happiness, then, we need to get rid of unnecessary wants and desires. You might have observed that, if not, then you can observe that if you compare what you have with what others have, you can never be happy. You will always try to be like the other one. You will get in the race and you will have every thing except happiness.

Some times we feel that we are not enjoying a happy relationship or we are not happy from our children. The reason is so simple. Our soulmate is our partner in the life. But we start to own them. We think, that our partner of life is our only ours. He or she is our property. His or her rights are exclusively for us. We forget that our life partners or friends are not our property. They are with just for some time, for a certain period of the time. What should we do. We must try to enjoy every single moment of their company. We should think new ideas to make this relationship happier and give a higher rank in list of our priorities.

It is very easy to observe that those people who are not happy... they are not happy with their circumstances...We can change our circumstances but to a certain level. So, what we can not change, we should learn to accept and live with it. If we embrace our fate with a smiling face, then, believe me, we will be happier. If we mentally ready to disown other people and materialistic objects, and if we can get rid of expectations, then, certainly we will be more happier. Do you think is it difficult to do?

Should I hope that next time when you will be reading my blog, there will be a true smile on your lips. Should I hope?

Happiness for one can not be defined as happiness for another. One of the problems I see is that most people are seeking happiness from others, you can not depend on someone else to fulfill the void in your life. We are each responsible for our own destiny, the path we choose, the choices we make will determine how fulfilled we are here on earth. It doesn't matter how rich you are if you don't share your wealth with those less fortunate. It doesn't matter how much knowledge you have if you don't share that knowledge to those who have less knowledge. Life is about giving, too many people take. I feel happy when I do something for someone else, it is my greatest joy!
