Often asked by people that I usually acquaint with, is how do they make themselves happy. And I honestly don’t have an idea on what to answer them, and thus I choose to dig a little deeper within what lies beneath the reason of our happiness and how do we obtain and get a grip of it.
I am happy. I am. And because of that I need not to find any reasons why or how or since when, ‘coz actually, I shouldn’t be questioning about it. But instead, I should be thankful. And that is what we should all must think about, not the shortcomings, not the failures, those are there that we might learn from them, not to regret about.
Not one of us asked to be sad. Not ever. We all do want to be happy. We all ask to be happy. And most of the times that our request is being granted are not in the way that we expect it to be. It comes in the simple things and pleasures in life. We are just too caught up waiting for what we have expected the way it would come, too busy that we fail to acknowledge that it’s already been granted, it’s already been there. Though, not in the way that we want it but God knows it’s the best way for us. He has his ways.
It is ok to be sad once in a while. That’s just normal for us to get depressed and stumble during our journey. That’s part of it. After all, how will you know what will make you happy if you wont know what will make you sad? Lots of things in life make us both happy and sad. That is called balance. They co-exist with each other. Without the other, the other is void. Life is not a one-way-street that you get to enjoy only the happy things there are. It’s a two way road that we are all in right now. And unless you begin to understand that sadness is part of being happy, you will never get over your self-titled world with fictional happiness that decorates it.
Be glad in whatever you do. Cherish your family and loved ones. Be true to yourself and do the things that are making you extremely happy and never feel bad of the things that you said because that’s just like trying to be sorry for being true.
I’m bad at parting words. But the only phrase I could say before this article ends. One of the simplest ways to stay happy is to avoid the things that are making you sad.
Stay HAPPY!!!!
