Happiness?

Sometimes in life there do come people whom you never wanna let go of. But fate usually has other plans for you. You have to let go of people who you don't wanna let go of and you have to accept people who you may not really want in your life. Going through any one of these is a humbling experience. This is where adaptibility comes in maybe.

It might not be a happy experiewnce, in fact, it is definitely not. But then you may find your own happiness once you make peace with yourself and your situation. Or maybe you might clone the same happiness in your new life. What is happiness really?

Is happiness the fulfillment of all your needs? Or is it making peace with yourself, your life and your God? Is it finding a perfect partner? Or is it getting the one you loved? Does happiness come from within or is it induced from material things?

Would you feel happy if your life long dream of having a big house by the lake is fulfilled? Would you feel happy if you got a perfect wife who loves you and is dedicated towards you? Or would you be happy if you were denied every material possession in exchange for a life long struggle with your love?

It is very complicated and subjective. The more you live life the more mysterious it becomes. At some points in life you understand it and at other points you feel you will never be able to understand it.

I think that maybe happiness lies in satisfaction. Being satisfied with your situation as it is, and being thankful for it. Not seeking other ways to get out of it. It maybe making the best of what you have. Maybe life is accepting whole heartedly what life throws your way. I'm not there yet, but I do hope that some day I would be.
