Hey friends, long time no see.Hope you all are doing fine.No this is not letter,Lol.
Just want to know whether you find my thoughts (described below) correct or you have another viewpoint on happiness.
"Cheerfulness oils the machinery of life." How true! But how can one manufacture cheerfulness? Indeed...it is an art! One needs to notice and acknowledge that even the tiniest incidents in life can contain moments of immortal pleasure and happiness. Whereas on one hand a goal in life is a must, recognizing the ultimate Ecstasy that god gifts us in little joys of life is, if not more, then at least equally important!In today's fast pace urbane life, there is a huge competition to reach the peak in every sphere, which often compels us to divert our minds from the little joys of daily life, and makes us work like heartless machines, anticipating the arrival of a "larger than life" moment, when we achieve our goals. Nowadays, people are forgetting the concept of happiness.
It is often misunderstood as entertainment. Talk about the small pleasures of life and one instantly gets reminded of a program on television or the idea of hitting a nightclub. No doubt, all these things are stress relievers, but they do not make you "happy" in the true sense on the word.
"Time and tide waits for none." It is the present that is the most important. Thus, while we should plan and work for a bright future, we should also remember that the present is for us to relish the unique taste of life and be HAPPY!!
Tell me when was the last time when you were really overjoyed?
