Hi Friends,
Every one of us is searching for this most important thing, happiness. But don't we sometimes confuse it with pleasure? What is the secret of well-being? Is it partly or entirely dependent on how much amount we can spend on stuffs? The feeling of well-being is not a scarce thing. But I wonder if all forms of satisfaction are genuine and permanent. Can you buy happiness? What is the true nature of human longing for happiness.
In this discussion we will reveal much about happiness just by digging deeper inside ourselves. How much, do you think, your happiness depends on your wealth? If you think there may be some other way to find happiness in life please share with us your secret.
Take care
God bless you all

yeah, happiness certainly depends on wealth... the more you have, the lesser happy you are supposed to be... lol... money brings headache... more specifically, money upto the level adequate for maintaining the basic needs is the the threshold level beyond which wealth may bring headache as well...

Hello,
yes I completely agree with you. Money beyond a certain amount may indeed be a headache. One can be satisfied with the basic needs, again one can never be satisfied no matter how much wealth he has. But wealth becomes headache when you have developed a certain strong desire to acquire and store money. To my notion a real beggar is one who is totally controlled by his desire to make money. If you can get rid of that desire, wealth can serve truly righteous cause, thus giving you satisfaction and happiness.
Thanks so much for such a sincere response
God bless you
