Have you ever wondered what the point of life was? Every one of us are on a different quest in life. Some of us search for happiness, some peace, some God and some don't even know what they are searching for! But in the end, all of us expect different things from life. Some of us get what we want while the others don't, but the most important thing is to be satisfied with what we have. I for one feel that happiness is one of the most important things in life, and you know what, I am learning to take happiness out of everything that life has to give me! (Yeah, that includes all the shit too)
Happiness is a feeling that is born in you. It cannot be created or even influenced by others around you. You decide to be happy or not. Have you ever come across the time when you were unhappy and you decided to blame it on those around you? Well, yeah, it happens very often to me. And then I realised (of course, this one came later one during one of my happy moods) it was not their fault that I was unhappy. It was never their fault. It was always my choice -- I decided to be unhappy. Similarly, you could be happy if you wanted to.
There are always those times when you cannot help but feel down but I think that is alright, once in a while of course, since you are not really a "Happiness Machine" (and please, I'm a girl, and PMS-ing is my birthright). I think we must really find happiness in everything possible. A happy person is one who people actually really love.
It is fine if people make fun of you or think you are very silly, but if you are one of those people who get excited because you saw a monkey doing a somersault, I think you are great. It is okay if they want to make fun of you, they are not you. For all you know, it may even be jealousy. Enjoy and if possible, make them enjoy with you. Little things bring about bigger happinesses
As put very well by John Masefield in his poem "Laugh and Be Merry", Life was created out of happiness and for happiness. In a burst of joy, God created the world and filled it with joy for us to relish. We must take in every bit of it possible and enjoy it. Life's not very long, though that is the longest that you'll do, work towards what you truly search for. Follow your passion. Dream on. Ask your soul time and again, "Is that what I truly want?" and most of all, Relish and be happy no matter what happens. And smile, because you can... :)
