Happiness ! Happiness ! Happiness !

"Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence." - Aristotle

Happiness is the undying quest of every beings life. The human mind goes hither thither seeking this! But has the mankind realized Happiness is the inner quality of each man. Seek this within you; manifest it to the entire world. It is well said “A Happy day goes all the way, your sad tires in a smile”

What is Happiness? What is the feeling it creates in any being? Is it not a tonic to the mind, body and to the entire universe who share the same with you? Happiness has no boundaries but that does have a boundary within you. Could make out the Punch in this remark?

To make matters simple Happiness is something we have to decide to dig from with in. It is not outsourced. Once the gem is unearthed the brilliance pervades all through you as well on the one you share with. It is contagious spreading the positive vibration to the entire universe boundless!

"Remember, happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have, it depends solely upon what you think."
Dale Carnegie

Our Happiness is our responsibility! Your Happiness is your responsibility! While things around you could change and go bad, it is you who decides  how you  respond to them. You can decide to be happy. Take responsibility to chose to be so for your life.

"A string of excited, fugitive, miscellaneous pleasures is not happiness; happiness resides in imaginative reflection and judgment,
when the picture of one's life, or of human life, as it truly has been or is, satisfies the will, and is gladly accepted."
George Santayana

"The happiest people seem to be those who have no particular cause for being happy except that they are so."
William Ralph Inge

Be childlike……. Children more often have a habit of watching things with melancholy, giggle, and chuckle; clap the hands and what not. The object they see may seem to be meaningless to adults. As adults we have no time to enjoy the little things that God has given us. We keep going round & round thinking of various goals (Wealth, Power, position,) for one single goal Happiness.   

We do not realize: "Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands,
but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is."
Maxim Gorky.

When we were children we thought parental controls ruin our happiness, when students exams & teachers, when employed the bosses, when married the spouse & when old our sons & daughters. Recap at this stage kindles our nostalgic memories as a child, student and on and on …..  

Hence “Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness."
George Orwell

"It is better to be happy for a moment and be burned up with beauty
than to live a long time and be bored all the while."
Don Marquis

"If you observe a really happy man you will find him building a boat, writing a symphony, educating his son, growing double dahlias in his garden, or looking for dinosaur eggs in the Gobi desert. He will not be searching for happiness as if it were a collar button that has rolled under the radiator. He will not be striving for it as a goal in itself. He will have become aware that he is happy in the course of living life twenty-four crowded hours of the day."
W. Beran Wolfe

24 Hrs a day round the clock activity, with not a wink to think! Work creatively. Creativity is a fodder to Happiness. Use your talents to the brim. Master a lot of your passions. Watch your success in all these. Learn something new every day. Do your best to improve yourself but don’t be obsessed by it. Do not search for Happiness for in the search the mystery remains a mystery. See it all over, and then you have mastered solving the puzzle. It is mind that matters & Mind has a nasty habit of going with out any controls on its own. Use your intellect to drive to this Goal of Happiness. It is a drive not beyond but into oneself.     

"A world full of happiness is not beyond human power to create; the obstacles imposed by inanimate nature are not insuperable. The real obstacles lie in the heart of man, and the cure for these is a firm hope, informed and fortified by thought."
Bertrand Russell

In the journey of life we come across a lot of relationships, some just a brush some become our part and some share our lives. Let’s build these relationships as a priority to enjoy the Happiness and share among ourselves. Happiness shared does not lose its power but becomes multifold – The mathematics of Happiness.     

"Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place
to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so."
Robert Green Ingersoll

As you travel up the lane of life remember to recall all those happy moments which have made you sail through all this while. Get energized to go on & on with this spirit. Forget the unpleasant past. Count your blessings!

"I had rather have a fool make me merry, than experience make me sad."
William Shakespeare
