Desire to be happy !!!

In today’s world human mind is full of conflict. Conflict in office, conflict in family and relations, conflict between nations and most of all conflict between happiness and unhappiness. Have you ever realized what exactly happiness is? For some happiness is shopping, for some travelling is happiness, for some acquiring new gadgets is happiness. And for some, happiness is when their child is born. 

            But all these reasons for being happy are not ever lasting. And we are back to square one with the same question again, what exactly is happiness. As said by a philosopher - "Happiness is a state of mind". It’s none other than us who decides whether we want to be happy or sad. We ourselves are responsible for our own happiness or despair.

We restrict and limit our happiness by drawing a border. This border is nothing but our "reasons" to be happy. Some says - “I would have been so happy if I would have been a millionaire"; some says - "The happiest moment for me will be when I will buy a BMW" and so on. But the trauma is people tend to ignore what they have at present and keep craving for something better. And these reasons which we choose to be happy are actually our desires. We all desire something or the other from life. It’s natural and there is nothing wrong with it. But people get frustrated when their desires are not fulfilled. And a frustrated and disturbed mind can never be happy.

We all know very well that nothing is achieved in life without desire. So "desire to be happy". Promise yourself to be happy every day. Appreciate small things and beauty around you. Feel happy from your heart and soul when you see your kid's innocent smile, Feel happy when someone loves you and cares for you. Feel happy when you see sunset with your partner's hand in hand. Don't confine your happiness to materialistic things. Happiness is beyond that.

No one can make you happy or sad unless and until you want. It’s up to you to make a choice. Remember, we have the caliber to choose. Choose Life, Love and choose happiness. Your life is a result of your choices.
