Happiness

When the last time you were happier, compared to all previous times, what made you happy so much!! for us happiness is state of achievement we feel happy and proud when we achieve big in life, may be getting good marks in exams, job promotion, when you love someone, when your child says your name for the first time, when you make your family proud, when you own things which you always wanted, when you see your dreams becoming reality.

Definitely all these moments are most beautiful in our lives, but my question is, is this the real happiness which we always think of. All these are materialistic happiness, and then you must be thinking which happiness I am talking about? I am talking about the happiness which we don’t see, we hardly find that real happiness from within, and I am speaking of the happiness from helping someone.

When was the last time you helped someone and felt you did something good and felt happy about it? Yes I think this is the real happiness according to me. We are so busy in our lives, that we hardly see any one, sometimes we don’t know what our own family members are up to. But when you look around you see so many people who want always in search of help in some form or other may be emotional help.

When you see an elderly person facing difficulty to cross the road, what you do? Just see them and you carry on or you help them crossing the road? When you see a small little child surrounded by his own problems, have you ever smiled at kids? Sometimes when you help anyone without any expectation or reward, you will feel more happy and satisfied. To see the smile on small kids face or toothless smile on an elderly person is priceless, when you help your own friends in problem you see the real happiness and you can feel that from within.

I think everyone of us need to help anyone in some way or the other , without expecting any reward, then at that moment you will discover the real happiness which you will never forget. It’s difficult for me to tell you how you feel but it’s the most best moment I feel every time when I make a difference to someone life in a good way.

So one can discover the real happiness in oneself and no where else.

    Happyness is actually a state of mind, it can never be achieved, it can only be pursued. wen v r happy, v r actually pursuing happiness. After sm tym v get out of that state of mind, n evry thing comes to normal.
