The last afternoon ,I have had the biggest scare in my life.I opined that my son's lost !when I was cooking I left him alone in the bedroom ,he played himself ,and he often disturbed me when i do the housework ,but this time he didn't ,I felt so glad of that ,but when I finished my cooking ,I found he is gone ,my heart hardly jumped out ,I run out of my house madly ,ask and search,but no one saw him ,I was so despair to came back ,but found he was hide himself in the corner between my bed and his little bed ,and put my two pillows and his quilt on him ,sleeping !and it never look like there's a little child in it .I embraced him in my arm tightly tears broke out my eyes,I never felt so happy to have him in my arm ,no more felt that he is a little bother man .I just embraced him and enjoed what the happiness I have
I never felt I have him so much ,but when he's lost ,I thorough knew it .
yes ,happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it !

Yes, I fully agree with this. Happiness is a state of mind, not the possession of material things. No rich man is completely happy just as there are many poor people who are quite happy with their lot. Personally, I lack many material possessions and I have to slog it out to earn a decent income but I am happy the way I am. I think the trick lies in understanding that happiness is a concept, it is not a concrete thing that can be held and achieved. The concept has to be developed and nurtured in the mind to attain and sustain it forever.

You are so right. In my previous career, I had to study the psychology and mentality of unhappy and depressed people and anyone can be happy if they change their attitude and outlook on life. No matter how bad your situation is, a person with the right mindset will always be happy.

Hello there, I can feel your emotion very well for me to a father of a son. Things are always like this. We feel the absence more than the presence. So long your son was a presence for you and you were happy off him when doing household chores. You had never felt nor got an opportunity to feel how much your child meant for you. Now when you were at a fix when saw your son nowhere, the intensity grew so large that not caring the sound sleep of your son you embraced him as the emotion got a vent.
Now you value the valuable thing more than before , not only your son, everything you love.

yes...it is so easy to get caught up in the things that we need to do that we lose sight of the most important things to us....the things that are causing us to be so busy.....our family, friends, children. We sometimes work so hard trying to make their lives happy and good that we forget to embrace and enjoy them the way we should. I've been guilty of that too. Sometimes it takes a jolt like that to remind us of what matters most. I am so glad you found your son safe & sound! can you even imagine how those mother's that were not so lucky feel? I read these stories in the news and my heart goes out to them. My own kids when they were younger hid on me in a moment when I was preoccupied and it was JUST A MOMENT. It is the scariest feeling in the world.

oh its great that u found ur dear son. well im 16 years now,and i can tell u that u should never leave ur son alone. well since i had this bad experience of no love around me.My parents love my elder brother more than me and they always took care of me with only money
. i was never given any piece of love. it was good that even in such bad conditions i didnt went on wrong paths.well im happy now because there is one friend of mine who makes me happy and cheers me up when im too sad.
only thing i want to say is never leave that small child alone any time, some parents think that children are too demanding and they should not be given that much love,but it is totally wrong. only if a child gets love that he wants,he can be happy through out his life.go on with ur son and take him to a park with u every sunday.

It's human tendency we learn to really appreciate something only after its lost. Those ppl who get a second chance at it I consider them pretty lucky. Coz life doesn't give second chances that easy.
Even though the ideal thing will be to not take neone or nething for granted from the very beginning, but at the same time being extremely difficult to achieve if not impossible, we should learn the lesson when life teaches us and not to forget it irrespective of being given a second chances wid the same person or thing or wid someone or something else.
The important thing is we LEARN...Learn to count to appreciate or blessing almost on a regular basis.

Yes I think that happiness lies in what we choose to think on. If it make you happy to hold ur son by all means you should hold him. I look back at pics of mine while they were young and sleeping from time to time. I think to myself, it was a time of such innocence. Now my children are growing up and the innocence is leaving, thank God I still have my pictures to cherish. Enjoy ur son and keep a good eye on him.

It's funny what crazy things kids do and get you worried. I can imagine how you felt but its good you found your son.
True, no matter what crazy things and even sometimes annoying things your child does, they still bring so much happiness that if you lose them, you'd go crazy. Good you found your son. Hold on to that precious little soul! Its probably the best gift you will ever have.
