What is Happiness?

Post by buttercup »

i dont think the pain really ever disappears koan, its more how you manage the pain, if you have negative energy aimed at you, fire positive back

im not saying thats easy to do cars but you have to try for fear that your own soul will be contaminated by it resulting in anguish

dont allow them to do that to you

Cars-

Hello, for me happiness is:

-the wind against my skin

-my sons smile

-the smell of the beach

-knowing I have made a difference at the end of the day

What is Happiness?

Great question cars !

What is "Happiness"? Can you really "make" yourself happy? Tell yourself don't spoil Today, worrying about tomorrow!

It has been said: "Being Happy doesn't mean everything's Perfect, It means you've decided/learned to see beyond the Imperfections"!

How does one know when there a point that the Imperfections are just too many to be overlooked, so as to be happy



Can you make yourself happy ?

Yes or at least you can set yourself up on the right paths, you can increase your chances of making it through with fulfilling memories to ponder one day.

I wont go into it right now but I will tell you I was near dead 3 yrs ago. I was living in hell (self induced of course) and I had 2 choices in front of me.

Die......or live.

I chose to live.

When I made that decision I found myself with more choices than I knew what to do with. I reinvented myself, it became my purpose to be my highest self whatever that was. In that I have found peace and respect for myself which in turn allows for happiness.

Every single day we make choices that reflect on what tommorrow might bring to you.

The answer lies within you.

Wow, you can be proud of yourself for making the right choice! Glad you are still here! :)
