Happiness: what is it and where to find it?

in happiness •  7 years ago 

So I’ve decided to find happiness. But I meant a constant level of happiness. I wanted to be a happy person at all time, not only sporadically. To feel that inner joy and sense of security. I wanted to find happiness in a form of balance, peace and strength in pursuing the objectives. To trust and believe in myself. To be sure that I am exactly who I want to be and I do exactly what I want to do. That I have the courage to achieve everything I want. Happiness as a state in which I can get anything I want, and I do not limit my dreams in any way. As an inner smile which I carry with me everywhere I go.

It seems to us, that happiness is a point which we could reach if we work hard enough and long enough, but that is not true. Happiness is a journey not a destination. We often perceive it as a long, hard road to the top of the mountain. And only when we reach the top, we are achieving true happiness. In fact it is exactly the opposite. We already are on top of that mountain but we are too blind to see it. Our subconscious mind does not allow us to see. It tells us to fear and prevents us from glances down. But surely the feeling of happiness is a state of mind devoid of fear.
Wake up! The real happiness is inside you already. This is a matter of choice, you choose whether you want to be happy or not. You are making that decision. Happiness is a choice so let’s choose to be happy!

Happiness is our natural state. When you are in the moment doing what you want, you remain happy. However, as soon as you go against your flow, against what you feel or what you want to do, against your passion, as soon as you go against your excitement, you block that happiness. You create tension and stress between who you truly are and who you are trying to be. So as soon as you let go of trying to be someone else and remain yourself, you will find your happiness.
So just be yourself, follow your higher excitement in everything you do. HAPPINESS IS YOUR NATURAL STATE. You need to find your path, and just be aware that the path will change in every moment, it won’t remain the same.. just embrace that change. Follow your excitement, follow your passion. Do what you want and you’ll be happy. Happiness is freedom, and freedom manifests itself in doing what you want. True freedom is the absence of limitation, the presence of possibility.
Does it sound unbelievable? Only at first glance.. I discovered the secret of happiness and I’m going to share it with you :)
