I had been feeling particularly happy for about a week now and today, at the weekend I sat to analyse as to what was the reason behind it all.
Well actually, none. I was happy just because I was happy as I had no reason to be sad about.
We never really have to search for reasons to be happy, happiness comes to us naturally. Take for example, you are having your morning stroll and this puppy is playing on the road, makes you smile; the kid going to school waving his hands in air, makes you happy; the utter stupidity your colleague just did, well it was such a big one that you couldn't help but smile.
Happiness is not about being happy, its all about not being sad.
We have to search for reasons to be sad about, sometimes we search and other times we just make them up ( though there are some serious reasons too and they are genuine, but lets not talk about that).
Why do we in search of larger happiness, ignore the smaller ones that come to us everyday. Believe me, if you start measuring, you have been happy for 90% of your life and that is a bit too much.
Your life is all about your perspectives, how you infer things. You change that and accordingly will change the reasons that will define your emotions.
So stop cribbing about the alleged sadness and miseries in your life, the moon out there is shining bright, go and be happy about it because god has given you eyes to see and appreciate its beauty..
But oh! I just gave you a big reason,let me give you another small one, are you feeling sad right now ? No, then come on be happy about it..
(Confused Genius is happy and enjoying herself, because she has changed her perspective towards things. Maybe you should try that too.)
