As we all know, people always crave for things that will satisfy them. But my realization hit me that happiness is not always gained through worldly desires. It’s just appreciation for the little things, being thankful for the everyday blessings, being with your loved ones, acceptance, forgiveness, peace of mind and self-worth. “HAPPY LIFE” Two great words that depicts what and why life should be. It is something that everyone desires to fulfill and experience. It attracts positivity and hope as we deal with the world around us. However this two great words has the audacity to turn the table, and contradict each other’s meaning, resulting to agony and death. Now let’s strive to define what happy life could be. Many people would say, it is having everything you want in life, or being successful in a career having a stable jobs, dining at a fancy restaurant, or living in a luxurious life. Happy life could be having a complete family, no matter what kind of social status you belong as long as striving to survive. Happy life is not only for the richest nor the poorest one. It is not something to be sold, and it does not choose whom it will experienced. I believe being born and alive is one of the best reason for us to be happy. No matter where we came, and who we are, we are all humanbeing that is dependent with each other and to environment we are living. There was no seventh heaven and a parallel world, it merely comes from our creative imagination because we are all standing, breathing and looking up to the sky where sun and stars are watching over us through day and night. We might have this individual difference, flaws and imperfections, altogether are like a pieces of jigsaw puzzle that is embedded and assembled completely to become its finest and a perfect figure that sustain each other’s shortcomings and filling our life with hopes and dreams. I believe each one of us has different stories and experiences that prevails our happy life moments. It’s really fascinating because most of it ended and we get to enjoy in a short period of time. Golden moments, where our hearts filled with joy as we smile genuinely. However, there still a lifelong period where happy life will never end. It is all about having a life full of purpose and hopes. Being able to determine what we want to be, nor what our life would be, drives us on how we should do it. To strive for a happy life does not mean to become perfect in everything, we make mistakes and be tempted too through our greediness, and sin. As we all know, people always crave for things that will satisfy them. But my realization hit me that happiness is not always gained through worldly desires. It’s just appreciation for the little things, being thankful for the everyday blessings, being with your loved ones, acceptance, forgiveness, peace of mind and self-worth. Living in this kind of world is really hard. It is full of hardships, sufferings, failures, pain, heartbreak’s and even lost. But this is the only path for us to follow so that we can arrive in a wonderful and a fulfilling destination. The journey might be long and tiring, some situations or our own plans may not end as we want it, being lost in the wilderness of the road will help us to mold and shape our own life. Because of this we can able to determine what happy life could be, and even we can make it with our own bare hands, with our own blood and sweat. There was no easy road to take, even shortcuts because every step we make, it gives us an opportunity to make our life better, even when we fall and take the wrong directions, there still a great lessons unfold that make us more stronger and wiser. All those beautiful great kind of words always have their opposite meaning that plays a role in our life so we must always have a stronger faith not only to our God but also to ourselves. Neither of the two great word, agree and contradicts, it contains the real essence of our life. Those words will always find us as we explore and thrived with this world.
