What is true happiness? Can anyone here claim to be honestly, truly happy? Seems like sayings such as ' Iam on cloud 9' hardly exist anymore. After all, what do we consider happiness?
Spotted a little primary one girl skipping and singing along today, saying something like, "Iam happy, so happy.. no one in the world but mee......" And that gave me inspiration for this post.
How often are we happy these days? Way back in those days when we were overwhelmed with happiness at the thought of a simple walk, an unexpected ice cream treat, or even the simple joy in watching a rainbow appear on a rainy day. Where are those days? When we do not indulge in the simplicities of life? Yes, we can appear happy, say we feel happy, and even feel happy, at that point in time.
But then a dark shadow of disappointment always crops up at the wrong time, sealing out our happiness. I don't know if its the complexities of life or what, but yes, its hard to be happy in today's world. What we ought to do is to become like a child again and marvel at the simply joys of a hot bath, of a sunshiny day, of a unexpected treat, whatever it may be. If only we could.
