Happiness.

Happiness does not mean absence of problems and imperfections.Troubles and worries are an integral part of this world’s design. Happiness actually lies in how you decide to look at the difficulties and complications that you may be facing in life. You cannot have absolute, one hundred percent control over what happens to you. But you sure have the control to decide how you are going to react to what happens to you. That determines what kind of feelings you will have about your life. To someone whose heart is full of hostility and resentment towards the world, every thing appears to be in bad shape. For the people who are over critical and excessively judgmental in their day to day life, there is a plenty to complain and mumble about everywhere, every day. On the other hand, the people who are calm and tolerant and have patience while interacting with other people, find that life is beautiful and more worthwhile in spite of all its limitations, flaws and deficiencies. Why it is so? This is so because we do not see things as they are. We see things as we are. There is no point in unduly blaming others for our miseries. How we think is the kind of life we live. Our lives are as good as we decide to make them. But all decisions must be followed by some action in order to bring some change.
