The Pursuit of Happiness

 


What is happiness to you ? Is it a place ? A destination ? 

What is happiness to you ? Is is time spent in blissful meditation ?  

We tie out happiness to the big moments, to  achievements, to the next big purchase, to things outside of our reach. So its more like an unending journey.

What happens when the rush is gone ? What happens when all has been said and done ? Is it time to go on a search again ? Is it time to aim for that rush again ? 

The pursuit soon becomes a addiction, searching for the rush of emotions and all this while, happiness has been right there. If only we have paid much attention.... 

Ive been thinking about being grateful, appreciation as i found my way through, because sometimes situations try to break you, Anger and bitterness overtake you. 

Everybody is trying for a good life, only recently is when i understood life. People be telling you what you shouldn't like . My choice is to be grateful for all the special things i got like my life, friends and family. Even when its getting hard, they right there beside me. Im grateful they surround me. 

Being grateful is like seeing the sun, even when the skies are cloudy. 

What you seek is within, its not a place but a feeling, search your heart and you will find, i know its hard, free your mind, Don't look further, look inside you, i know you'll realize..

Make a journey, but don't go far, make the journey inwards. Its right within you. True Happiness... 


True happiness is love against the odds, saying "'Shukriya'''to failure because it taught you something hard, Its lying inside your weakness and feeling the hand of God. 

Sadness threatens to shake you with something you cant dislodge, Its noticing there's quiet inside of this noisy forest we call life. I hope there's happiness in yours, if your energy is running low, you need to go recharge. 

I hope you remember to feel the wind on your skin, than breathe in and be grateful for oxygen, and please don't forget that as long as life is still inside us, Its not to late to try you can always begin. 

i hope you grateful for second changes, remember its about asking questions and not the answers. Sometimes we cannot change the situations around us but we can choose to see through different lenses nd be grateful. What you seek is within. 

Happiness is never loosing that inner child, its about being strong and bold. Happiness is gratitude. The exercise of this is an important attitude . Its about giving and not expecting anything back Happiness is an inside job. 

Why do keep searching for what's already within us ?
