How To Gain Happiness

          How to Gain Happiness?

Reasons Why I am Happy

         Being happy is not as easy as one ever think of. According to you-can-be-happy.com there are many factors on what makes a person happy like laughter, knowing ones loved and loving oneself, giving oneself the things he ever dreamed of and even laughing at your self. Well, this probably right in some ways because in my own observation the final judgment will always be on the person who wants happiness and how he will achieved such that goal. And for me the first thing to do above all other things needed is know one self first. Knowing one self and the persons around on someone will always be a greater help in achieving true happiness.
             Happiness takes time and the ability to value the things around. I'll be turning twenty (20) twenty four (24) days from now and this would be my last days of being a part of teenager, well, 19 years of existence in this wild wide world and 19 years of experiencing the spices of happiness -pain, hunger of love, discouragement and fear. Yes, at first I experienced all those “harsh things” as they say but I have raised my flag on the top that I have conquered all those “pre-harsh things” as I call them. I know I am still young and those things were just simple preliminary trials sent by God in order for me to achieve my true happiness. Fortunately, after all those mess, indeed, it makes me smile at my self.
              I am happy because I have my friends around me. I know this is so cliché but what can I do? My friends help me in many ways –I can talk with my problems to them, the problems I couldn’t tell to my parents. They lifted me up when my world is falling apart and I felt no place to go. They were my great adviser about my relationships in love and other so. My friends are really great, they fill the things I couldn’t experienced at home, they somehow develop me as who I am now. I am happy that I have them –they made my life more colorful.
                 I am happy because I have my family especially my MOTHER. She don’t only give me food, shelter, clothing, education or even money but they gave me more on that. They give me values that until now I have uphold, my mother is my best teacher and mentor. I am very happy to have my noble mother, they taught me to walk and run into the hard days of my life and when every time I fell down, they will always be there cheering me up and giving me courage and strength not to give up but instead to continue to reach what I am reaching for.
             Above all, I will always thanks God for everything He has done for me. He gave me instruments like my friends, family and my personal experiences to gain my happiness that I am experiencing in my life. I know I am very blessed with my life now. He is truly my ultimate provider of happiness.
            It is so nice to reflect one self at a moment. It gives me the opportunity to speak, to express and to realize the thing which makes me happy. Yes, I have all those basic materials stuff –cell phones, laptops, branded bags, dress, shoes and some things that money can buy but realizing the fact that all those things will not last; it will intersect the fact that it is only a temporary happiness.
            True happiness is more than that of money. True happiness is the happiness that came from the heart as they say it, happiness that will fill ones soul and happiness that you can bring even in the next world or life. These help me a lot not to be blind of the things that makes me happy and help me realized the roots for all my happiness in life. The happiness came from God, you have it now, just realize and think it too just how I did and you’ll know what I mean, and you’ll know how happy and blessed you are. Lastly I can say, “There are no such things as hindrance for someone not to succeed in being happy except of not knowing his own self”.
