To
Be Simple Yet Happy
|

It is so simple to be happy but so
difficult to be simple. Be contained to be content should be your
motto if you want to accomplish the aforesaid fact.
Happiness is a condition of the mind which
different people perceive in different things. For some materialistic
possessions are a source of happiness, while for others a solid bank
balance is enough to give them immense pleasure, a synonym of happiness.
For some nature with all its splendour is an eternal source of happiness.
Likewise family is another source of happiness for others.

It is hard to believe but nevertheless true
that for some twisted minds, others adversity is their reason for
happiness. Some find absolute solace playing musical instruments dancing
singing or engaging in hobbies related to fine arts while others revel in
competition, bragging etc.
Many of us who are rich, successful and
fulfilled are also sometimes unhappy. This is caused due to negative
thoughts and feelings which cannot be conquered though we possess every
known source of happiness. In order to be happy you have to learn to
appreciate the simple things of life, hence the intellectual and
enlightening idiom mentioned in the beginning of this article.
Real happiness comes from simplicity and we
all should strive to live as simple a life as we can. Take one day at a
time and try to make everyday life a sweet, simple and charming affair.
Let go the bonds of complexity that hold you down and you will realise
that though it is simple to be happy, its not at all difficult to be
simple too. Humility and submission to God is the first step towards
simplicity. No point being egoistical because life is a mystery and what
is today may not be tomorrow. So live one moment at a time enjoying and
celebrating it to the full. Every second of the ticking clock should
remind you to smile more, love more and to serve more because who knows
you might not have the next moment.
You do not need anyone or anything to be
happy. If you have a simple heart you possess all the ingredients needed
for the wonderful emotion and feeling which is elation So let go of all
the tentacles of worry, anguish and sorrow and let your heart sing like
the nightingale. You will be surprised that you really needed only your
own self all the time to be eternally happy and satisfied because you
realise that under the false wrappings of social conduct you truly are a
simple childlike person with a sincere and faithful heart which sees only
good in everyone and everything. In conclusion, it is so true to say that
keep a green bough in your heart and God will send a singing bird.
