Is it Possible to be Happy?
An usual question has taken over the Google Trends List today. In a reported effort to knock a Scientology matter off the trend item list. Although it really seems to be a sign of the times.
“Is it possible to be happy?’ It’s a question I am sure most of us would love an answer too.
Happiness comes in many forms, although when you are faced with unemployment, the economy, wars, and the modern world, it can seem out of reach.
While also being alone and single, around days such as Valentines Day has an effect on people. As it makes you question, why?
We can all find happiness. Though in reality, it comes in fleeting moments, it would be hard to live eternally happy.
Some religious leaders, and more spirtual beings would probably disagree. Although, are those same people living a day to day existence like us?
Having to work, pay bills, feed a family and put up with the stresses of life, all while trying to fit into the scheme of society.
It all makes it hard, though I do think happiness is easily gained.
In life we start to focus on the much larger things, and often tend to over look the small things that can give us pleasure, in return for happiness.
Things such as watching a baby interact, a small animal playing, an elderly couple in love and holding hands. There are many small things that if we open our eyes to them, can raise our spirits and make us feel happy.
But you have to open your eyes up to them, and want to see them.
Really happiness is about choice. We can wake each day wanting and expecting it to be miserable,or we can wake up with the same issues as yesterday, and think even though they are there, I will live this day happily.
Ultimately the choice is up to you. So how are you going to choose?
