The way to Happiness

Each month I get email subjected as “The Way to Happiness”. Each week I am stunned by reading the breaking news about another tragedy happened daily. The world surrounding us seems to be negative; sometimes I do feel the need to hold on some solid spiritual help to survive. And I could understand how many others do. The world indeed is changed. I never see my parents depressed even though their life was much tough; they merely made a simple life. Today we make a better living and our kids almost have everything they want. Yet I predict our offsprings much weaker and fragile. I could predict them addict in drugs, self-pity and other emotional broken-down behavior in their late life. I could feel their struggle on uncertainty of themselves. And I could not help them out.
Why the world is produced many more beautiful things, yet it traps more difficulty confront to each of us? Are we changed, or the world?
Everyday, we watch people’s gloomy faces on the way to work or back home. There is subtle sadness or emptiness there. Meanwhile, in the Medias, the celebrities present their paradises, but in real, they live in their shadows too. Are they happy? When now everywhere promote Money and Money, what is the true happiness.
My friends tell me, I am lucky to have my passion and time to pursue my dream. True, I am happier than many others.
But I get through the process of finding happiness in a difficult way, That is why I really would like to share my two cents.
Happiness is an attitude. It is in your heart. You can turn it on or off. I know it is easy to say. But when we all cannot figure out what is the true happiness, why let it bother you, why not just simply be happy, or contented?
When something is beyond touching, then let go of it. The world never falls, only you fall by your consent.
The happiness may not be the destination of our journey, but we still can turn the journey as the happy one, because in the end, we are too late to taste its fruit if it is happiness.
